High nutrient loads amplify carbon cycling across California and New York coastal wetlands but with ambiguous effects on marsh integrity and sustainability

PLoS ONE, 2022
Eutrophic conditions in estuaries are a globally important stressor to coastal ecosystems and have been suggested as a driver of coastal salt marsh loss.

Nitrous oxide emissions could reduce the blue carbon value of marshes on eutrophic estuaries

Environmental Research Letters, 2018
The supply of nitrogen to ecosystems has surpassed the Earth’s Planetary Boundary and its input to the marine environment has caused estuarine waters to become eutrophic.

Loss of 'blue carbon' from coastal salt marshes following habitat disturbance.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Increased recognition of the global importance of salt marshes as 'blue carbon' (C) sinks has led to concern that salt marshes could release large amounts of stored C into the atmosphere (as CO2) if they continue undergoing disturbance, thereby ...

Salt marsh monitoring along the mid-Atlantic coast by Google Earth Engine enabled time series.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Salt marshes provide a bulwark against sea-level rise (SLR), an interface between aquatic and terrestrial habitats, important nursery grounds for many species, a buffer against extreme storm impacts, and vast blue carbon repositories.

Seasonal carbon fluxes from vegetation and soil in a Mediterranean non-tidal salt marsh [PDF]

Biogeosciences
Salt marshes are important ecosystems for carbon sequestration. However, while studies of atmospheric carbon exchange fluxes have broadly been performed in tidal salt marshes, they are scarce in non-tidal salt marshes.

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 ...

Les marais salants brésiliens entre protection environnementale et pression foncière : un paysage en mutation

Projets de Paysage, 2019
This article reflects on the aspects of salt marsh landscapes threatened by the continued expansion of the real estate sector. In seeking to develop real estate assets some decision makers consider salt marshes as a potential land source for urban ...

Feeding ecology of 0-group sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax in salt marshes of Mont Saint-Michel bay (France) [PDF]

, 2001
0-group sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, colonize intertidal marsh creeks of Mont Saint Michel Bay, France, on spring tides (e.g., 43% of the tides) during flood and return to coastal waters during ebb.
