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

South West Atlantic salt marshes as model systems for community and ecosystem ecology
Ecología Austral, 2022 Just as some species are used as model systems in organismal biology (e.g., physiology, genetics), many ecosystems are commonly used as model systems in ecology. Salt marshes, for instance, are great models to perform manipulative field experiments, and

Climate-driven regime shifts in a mangrove-salt marsh ecotone over the past 250 years. [PDF]
, 2019 Climate change is driving the tropicalization of temperate ecosystems by shifting the range edges of numerous species poleward. Over the past few decades, mangroves have rapidly displaced salt marshes near multiple poleward mangrove range limits ...

Human activities accelerated the degradation of saline seepweed red beaches by amplifying top‐down and bottom‐up forces [PDF]
, 2018 Salt marshes dominated by saline seepweed (Suaeda heteroptera) provide important ecosystem services such as sequestering carbon (blue carbon), maintaining healthy fisheries, and protecting shorelines. These salt marshes also constitute stunning red beach
