Restoration and resilience to sea level rise of a salt marsh affected by dieback events

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
The frequency of salt marsh dieback events has increased over the last 25 years with unknown consequences to the resilience of the ecosystem to accelerated sea level rise (SLR).

Hydrodynamic Feedbacks of Salt‐Marsh Loss in the Shallow Microtidal Back‐Barrier Lagoon of Venice (Italy)

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2023
Extensive loss of salt marshes in back‐barrier tidal embayments is ongoing worldwide as a consequence of land‐use changes, wave‐driven lateral marsh erosion, and relative sea‐level rise compounded by mineral sediment starvation.

Dataset: Mutualistic interactions amplify salt marsh restoration success

open access: yes, 2017
Dataset: Mutualistic interactions amplify salt marsh restoration success. This dataset contains the data from a field experiment that was conducted from April 2013 till September 2015 to test the hypothesis that reciprocal facilitation may enhance salt

Rapid carbon accumulation following managed realignment on the Bay of Fundy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Salt marshes are highly effective carbon (C) sinks and have higher rates of soil C burial (per square meter) than terrestrial ecosystems. Marsh reclamation and anthropogenic impacts, however, have resulted in extensive losses of salt marshes. Restoration

Control of wind-wave power on morphological shape of salt marsh margins

open access: yesWater 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

Salt marsh restoration surprise: A subordinate species accumulates and shares nitrogen while outcompeting salt marsh dominants

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Selectively planting native species could guide ecosystem development toward wetland restoration targets, once we understand how influential species function, alone and in combination. Knowing that Triglochin concinna (arrow grass, Juncaceae) accumulates

Composition of fish communities in macrotidal salt marshes of the Mont Saint-Michel bay (France) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
At least 100 fish species are known to be present in the intertidal areas (estuaries, mudflats and salt marshes) of Mont Saint-Michel Bay. These and other comparable shallow marine coastal waters, such as estuaries and lagoons, play a nursery role for ...

Saltmarshes on the fringe : restoring the degraded shoreline of the Eden Estuary, Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Saltmarshes are highly valued habitats but the majority of the Eden Estuary’s saltmarsh was buried under sea defences and ad hoc rubbish dumps during the last century.

Facilitating Salt Marsh Restoration: The Importance of Event-Based Bed Level Dynamics and Seasonal Trends in Bed Level Change

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Intertidal salt marshes provide a range of valuable ecosystem services which typically increase with marsh width. Understanding the drivers for salt marsh expansion versus retreat is thus key to managers.

Salt marsh establishment in poorly consolidated muddy systems: effects of surface drainage, elevation, and plant age

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Conservation and restoration of salt marsh ecosystems are becoming increasingly important because of the many ecosystem services they provide. However, the processes controlling salt marsh establishment and persistence, especially on bare tidal flats in ...
