Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Megafauna shape ecosystems globally through trophic interactions, ecology of fear, and ecosystem engineering. Highly productive salt marshes at the interface of terrestrial and marine systems have the potential to support megafauna species, but a recent ...

Large methyl halide emissions from south Texas salt marshes [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2014 Coastal salt marshes are natural sources of methyl chloride (CH3Cl) and methyl bromide (CH3Br) to the atmosphere, but measured emission rates vary widely by geography. Here we report large methyl halide fluxes from subtropical salt marshes of south Texas.

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

Scientia Marina, 2023 Salt marshes are regarded as among the most productive coastal ecosystems, important “blue carbon” sinks and a support for benthic communities with large abundances, whose structure may be strongly influenced by salt marsh vegetation.

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.

Blue carbon stocks and exchanges along the California coast [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2021 Salt marshes and seagrass meadows can sequester and store high quantities of organic carbon (OC) in their sediments relative to other marine and terrestrial habitats.

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

Can thin-lipped mullet directly exploit the primary and detritic production of European macrotidal salt marshes? [PDF]
, 2002 Juveniles and adults (>100 mm) of Liza ramada colonize macrotidal salt marsh creeks of Mont Saint-Michel bay (France)between March and November, during spring tide floods (43% of the tides) and return to coastal waters during the ebb.

Geographic variation in plant community structure of salt marshes: species, functional and phylogenetic perspectives. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 In general, community similarity is thought to decay with distance; however, this view may be complicated by the relative roles of different ecological processes at different geographical scales, and by the compositional perspective (e.g.
