Diagnostic species are crucial for the functioning of plant associations in inland salt marshes

open access: yesScientific Reports
Salt marsh vegetation is considered unique and valuable and has been legally protected in Europe for years but is still declining. Its protection is related to vegetation syntaxonomical units.

Temporal and Spatial Patterns of Blue Carbon Storage in Mangrove and Salt Marsh Ecosystems in Guangdong, China

open access: yesLand
Coastal blue carbon ecosystems serve as vital carbon sinks in global climate regulation, yet their long-term carbon storage dynamics remain poorly quantified at regional scales.

Unsupervised classification and areal measurement of land and water coastal features on the Texas coast [PDF]

open access: yes
Multispectral scanner (MSS) digital data from ERTS-1 was used to delineate coastal land, vegetative, and water features in two portions of the Texas Coastal Zone.

Uncertainties in import/export studies and the outwelling theory. An analysis with the support of hydrodynamic modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
According to the “outwelling theory”, salt marshes are net exporters of primary production. This view has been contested, inducing a considerable interest in the subject.

Identification of marsh vegetation and coastal land use in ERTS-1 imagery [PDF]

open access: yes
Coastal vegetation species appearing in the ERTS-1 images taken of Delaware Bay on August 16, and October 10, 1972 have been correlated with ground truth vegetation maps and imagery obtained from high altitude RB-57 and U-2 overflights.

The Effectiveness of Shell Bag Restoration in Enhancing Salt Marsh Expansion in Coastal Georgia

open access: yesDiversity
Salt marshes are intertidal ecosystems that provide valuable services like wave attenuation, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration. Unfortunately, due to a combination of factors linked to global climate warming and increased coastal development ...

Influence of Salinity Variations on the Desorption and Lability of Soil Organic Carbon Associated with Tidal Freshwater Marshes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Tidal freshwater marshes (TFMs) are unique ecosystems that bridge the gap between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and are important in the sequestration of soil organic carbon.

Differential introgression and the maintenance of species boundaries in an advanced generation avian hybrid zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Evolutionary processes, including selection and differential fitness, shape the introgression of genetic material across a hybrid zone, resulting in the exchange of some genes but not others.
