The contribution of mangrove expansion to salt marsh loss on the Texas Gulf Coast. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Landscape-level shifts in plant species distribution and abundance can fundamentally change the ecology of an ecosystem. Such shifts are occurring within mangrove-marsh ecotones, where over the last few decades, relatively mild winters have led to ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Many salt-marsh systems worldwide are currently threatened by drowning and lateral erosion that are not counteracted by sufficient sediment supply. Here we analyze the response of a salt-marsh system to changes in sediment availability and show that ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.The thiocarbenium ion rearrangement of 3‐dihydrodisorhabdin B greatly increases the recovery of aleutianamine from Latrunculia spp., a pyrroloiminoquinone natural product with potent activity against drug‐resistant cancers, collected from the deep‐ocean along the Aleutian Islands.

Control of wind-wave power on morphological shape of salt marsh margins
Water Science and Engineering, 2020 Salt marshes are among the most common morphological features found in tidal landscapes and provide ecosystem services of primary ecological and economic importance. However, the continued rise in relative sea level and increasing anthropogenic pressures

Remote Sensing, 2021 Salt marsh evolution is strongly affected by tidal processes and ecology, which regulate sediment accretion and erosional rates. A balance between marsh erosion and deposition in a restored tidal wetland is crucial for analyzing restoration strategies to

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Our study analyses the long-term development of a tidal backbarrier salt marsh in the northern German Wadden Sea. The focus lies on the development of the high-lying, inner, mature part of the salt marsh, which shows a striking history of changing ...

Topological and Morphological Controls on Morphodynamics of Salt Marsh Interiors
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Salt marshes are important coastal environments and provide multiple benefits to society. They are considered to be declining in extent globally, including on the UK east coast. The dynamics and characteristics of interior parts of salt marsh systems are

Exploring the Impacts of Seagrass on Coupled Marsh-Tidal Flat Morphodynamics
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2018 Intertidal coastal environments are prone to changes induced by sea level rise, increases in storminess, temperature, and anthropogenic disturbances. It is unclear how changes in external drivers may affect the dynamics of low energy coastal environments
