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.

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

Analysis of the effects of different restoration approaches on the structure and functioning of salt marshes in the Venice lagoon [PDF]
, 2023 openSalt marshes are coastal ecosystems that provide key services to human population, such as coastal protection and blue carbon sink. Marshes have strongly deteriorated in past decades and, thus, countries worldwide invested in marsh restoration ...

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

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 ...

Salt Marshes and Mangroves: Tidal Saline Wetlands Dominated by Vascular Plants
, 2022 Coastal wetlands encompass an ecosystem continuum between subtidal depths (to which light penetrates to support photosynthesis) and the landward edge of sea level influence.
