Sand in the salt marsh: Contribution of high-energy conditions to salt-marsh accretion

Marine Geology, 2011
The environmental dynamics at barrier-island salt marshes are reflected in lateral and vertical textural patterns of the marsh sediment. During normal conditions, fine-grained sediment is deposited, whereas during high-energy conditions also sand accretion can occur.

Salt-Marsh Plant Geratology

Science, 1977
Measurement of individual culms of several salt-marsh plants demonstrates seasonal community change in terms of height increments and live and dead leaves. Tissue production and its ultimate transition from live to dead components and culm mortality all suggest a continuum of geratologic processes contributing to the estuarine ecosystem.

Controls on salt marsh accretion: A test in salt marshes of Eastern Canada

Estuaries, 2004
We used137Cs-dating to determine vertical accretion rates of 15 salt marshes on the Bay of Fundy, the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia. Accretion rates are compared to a number of factors assumed to influence vertical marsh accretion: rates of relative sea-level rise, climatic parameters (average daily temperatures and degree

Modeling productivity of a salt marsh

Cell Biophysics, 1987
A model of primary productivity in a salt marsh is developed and compared to a regression analysis study of data showing dependence of growth on growing season, mean tidal height, and average monthly temperatures for several grass species.

Ontogeny of a Salt Marsh Estuary

Science, 1965
The development of a typical New England salt marsh, and the growth of the sand spit which shelters it, during the past 4000 years has been reconstructed from soundings and borings of the peat. The results have been interpreted with the aid of observations on the structure of the marsh and estimates of the rate of its vertical accretion based on carbon-
