Global meta‐analysis highlights recovery of animal functional diversity in restored coastal ecosystems

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal ecosystems have experienced widespread global degradation, prompting substantial investment in restoration. While structural recovery is well documented, whether restoration reestablishes the functional diversity (FD) of animal communities and how recovery unfolds through time remains poorly resolved.

Climate benefits of wetland restoration are constrained by slow vegetation recovery

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Wetland restoration is widely used to enhance ecosystem resilience, biodiversity, and climate mitigation. However, restoring hydrology may not lead to rapid vegetation establishment or reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in severely degraded wetlands.

Evaluating the state of constructed infills in the Venice Lagoon through remote satellite imagery

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Salt‐marsh restoration is used to counter wetland loss, strengthen ecosystem resilience, and support dredged‐sediment reuse. In the Venice Lagoon, 63 constructed infills have been realized since the late 1980s, yet their eco‐geomorphological development and restoration performance remain incompletely assessed.

Salt-Marsh Loss in a Barrier-Island System: Parramore and Cedar Islands, VA, from 1957 to 2012 [PDF]

, 2017
This thesis has been embargoed for 1 year and will not be available until July 2016 at the earliest.Salt marshes can accrete and maintain their elevation with rises in sea level up to a certain rate before becoming inundated and converting to open water.

Integrating Phenological Features to Enhance Coastal Salt Marsh Monitoring and Infer Vegetation Succession Mechanisms: A Case Study of Yancheng National Nature Reserve

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Rapid changes in coastal salt marsh vegetation highlight the need for accurate monitoring to support sustainable management. This study aims to track annual salt marsh landscape dynamics and discuss vegetation succession mechanisms.

Are restoration benefits equitably distributed across the United States?

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Global restoration initiatives call for the consideration of marginalized communities in restoration decisions and goals. However, the extent to which marginalized communities benefit from restoration has not been studied at scale.

Native biocrust microbes modulate salinity‐driven recruitment filters in coastal wetlands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Mediterranean coastal wetlands are biodiversity hotspots increasingly threatened by climate change, particularly by salinization, which strongly constrains plant recruitment during early life stages. Native soil microbiota may provide nature‐based solutions (NbS) to enhance plant establishment under saline conditions.

Integrating drone multispectral and LiDAR data with machine learning: toward species-level biomass estimation in heterogeneous salt marsh vegetation

Geo-spatial Information Science
Quantitative estimation and spatial mapping of aboveground biomass (AGB) for salt marsh vegetation are crucial for modeling biogeochemical cycles and assessing wetland carbon stocks.

Using Remote Sensing to Identify Drivers behind Spatial Patterns in the Bio-physical Properties of a Saltmarsh Pioneer

Remote Sensing, 2019
Recently, spatial organization in salt marshes was shown to contain vital information on system resilience. However, in salt marshes, it remains poorly understood what shaping processes regulate spatial patterns in soil or vegetation properties that can ...
