Top-down and sideways: Herbivory and cross-ecosystem connectivity shape restoration success at the salt marsh-upland ecotone.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Wetland restoration provides remarkable opportunities to understand vegetation dynamics and to inform success of future projects through rigorous restoration experiments.

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Tracking the Dynamics of Salt Marsh Including Mixed-Vegetation Zones Employing Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 Time-Series Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Salt marshes, as one of the most productive ecosystems on earth, have experienced fragmentation, degradation, and losses due to the impacts of climate change and human overexploitation.

Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...

SOIL-GEOMORPHIC RELATIONSHIPS IN A NORTHEASTERN PATAGONIAN TIDAL SALT MARSH, PENINSULA VALDÉS, ARGENTINA

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Sedimentology and Basin Analysis, 2023
Salt marshes ecosystems have been studied extensively based on the interaction between geo-morphological and geo-ecological processes, but a soil-geochemistry approach is currently unknown in Patagonia.

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

Finding the sweet spot: An exploration of environmental factors to optimize Ulva carbohydrate content and composition

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Green macroalgae from the Ulva genus are rich in polysaccharides of interest, including ulvan, starch, and cellulose. However, their content and structure are impacted by environmental factors, which poses challenges for industrial applications, especially in the context of climate change.

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.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...
