Elevation Tolerances of Salt Marsh-Upland Ecotone Species: A Restoration Guide

open access: yesEDIS
Salt marshes provide flood and hurricane protection, filter water, provide wildlife habitat, capture carbon, and facilitate recreation such as fishing. Restoring them is complicated, and current restoration methods are not perfect.

Effects of restoration years on soil nitrogen and phosphorus in inland salt marshes [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Inland salt marsh wetlands have very important ecological functions in semi-arid areas. However, degradation and soil desertification have impacted these areas, making it necessary to study the impact of wetland restoration years on the soil quality of ...

Impact of sheep grazing on juvenile sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L., in tidal salt marshes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
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.

Biodiversity in salt marshes: from the patrimonial value to the ecosystem functioning. The case study of the Mont Saint-Michel bay. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Until 1979, European salt marshes were known only through the inventories of fauna and especially of flora. On such criteria, the salt marshes of the Mont-Saint-Michel bay (France) were regarded as most significant of the French coasts.

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 ...

Qualitative community stability determines parasite establishment and richness in estuarine marshes [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
The establishment of parasites with complex life cycles is generally thought to be regulated by free-living species richness and the stability of local ecological interactions.

Invertebrate communities of Bay of Fundy salt marsh pools: comparison of a natural and recovering marsh

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Disturbed salt marshes may recover with little additional management once tidal inundation is restored. We assessed the success of such recovery by comparing the invertebrate biota of Bay of Fundy salt marsh pools in a reference site at Dipper Harbour to

Circular Innovations in Complex Systems: A Blueprint of Four Design Archetypes

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular innovations (CI), defined as the redesign of products, services or practices to minimise waste, reduce resource use and regenerate natural systems, are essential for advancing the circular economy. Despite growing recognition, their deployment in systems of linked parts with unpredictable interactions (complex systems) remains limited

The plant ecology of Miranda wetland: Restoration options [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Wetlands are increasingly recognised and valued. Communities are accepting the challenges of restoring these severely degraded ecosystems. This study discusses the problems and opportunities associated with restoring Miranda wetland, that forms part of ...

Fish and invertebrate use of restored vs. natural oyster reefs in a shallow temperate latitude estuary

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Coastal marine habitats continue to be degraded, thereby compelling large‐scale restoration in many parts of the world. Whether restored habitats function similarly to natural habitats and fully recover lost ecosystem services is unclear.
