Nitrous oxide production and isotopomer composition by fungi isolated from salt marsh sediments
The emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas and ozone-depleting agent, have been steadily increasing from coastal environments, such as salt marsh sediments, as a result of anthropogenic nutrient loading.

Salt marshes are changing due to natural and anthropogenic stressors such as sea level rise, nutrient enrichment, herbivory, storm surge, and coastal development. This study analyzes salt marsh change at Fire Island National Seashore (FIIS), a nationally

Impact of sheep grazing on juvenile sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L., in tidal salt marshes [PDF]
The diet of young of the year sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L., from sheep grazed and ungrazed tidal salt marshes were com-pared qualitatively and quantitatively in Mont Saint-Michel Bay.

Carbon cycling by microbes has been recognized as the main mechanism of organic matter decomposition and export in coastal wetlands, yet very little is known about the functional diversity of specific groups of decomposers (e.g., bacteria) in salt marsh ...

Tide and habitat features affect salt marsh songbird nest survival in northeast Florida, USA
Tidal salt marshes face numerous pressures that threaten their ecological integrity, and many salt marsh vertebrates have exhibited declines concomitant with the degradation of salt marsh habitats.

The contribution of mangrove expansion to salt marsh loss on the Texas Gulf Coast. [PDF]
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 ...

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 ...

Rethinking the Freshwater Eel: Salt Marsh Trophic Support of the American Eel, Anguilla rostrata [PDF]
Despite the fact that Anguilla rostrata (American eel) are frequently captured in salt marshes, their role in salt marsh food webs and the influence of human impacts, such as tidal restrictions, on this role remains unclear.

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

Can thin-lipped mullet directly exploit the primary and detritic production of European macrotidal salt marshes? [PDF]
Juveniles and adults (>100 mm) of Liza ramada colonize macrotidal salt marsh creeks of Mont Saint-Michel bay (France)between March and November, during spring tide floods (43% of the tides) and return to coastal waters during the ebb.
