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

Role of fish communities in particulate organic matter fluxes between salt marshes and coastal marine waters in the Mont Saint-Michel bay. [PDF]
, 1998 Among the 90 fishspecies censused in the Mont Saint-Michel Bay (France), 23 colonise and forage in the salt marshes during flood. Therefore, this environmentmay play an important trophic and nursery role for these species.

Mapping Lower Saxony’s salt marshes using temporal metrics of multi-sensor satellite data
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2022 Salt marshes act as an important natural buffer in terms of coastal protection in the light of the rising sea level. Due to weather events like extreme storms the extent of salt marshes changes. Hence, it is of great importance to regularly monitor these

Physicochemical changes to soil and sediment in managed realignment sites following tidal inundation [PDF]
, 2010 PhDThe recognition of the value of salt marshes and concerns over salt marsh loss has led to the adoption of managed realignment in coastal areas. Managed realignment involves the landward relocation of the seawall, allowing an area of agricultural ...

Importance of quantifying the full-depth carbon reservoir of Jamaica Bay salt Marshes, New York
City and Environment Interactions, 2021 Constraining uncertainty in the global carbon cycle requires valid assessment of both surface and stored carbon in marine and coastal ecosystems (Blue Carbon) as well as terrestrial carbon (forests, peatlands, and soils) [Pendleton et al., 2012 ...
