Restoration of salt marshes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This thesis focuses on the restoration of salt marshes in north-west Europe. Salt marshes are important habitats that need to be conserved. Not only do they provide a suitable environment for different plant and animal species, many of which are ...

Greenhouse gas flux with reflooding of a drained salt marsh soil [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Salt marshes are highly effective carbon (C) sinks and bury more C per square meter annually than any other ecosystem. Reclamation and anthropogenic impacts, however, have resulted in extensive losses of salt marshes.

Fisheries rely on threatened salt marshes

open access: yes, 2020
Salt marsh ecosystems and the seascapes in which they are embedded serve as critical habitats for species harvested by fisheries (1), which provide food and economic security for hundreds of millions of people (2).

Circular Innovations in Complex Systems: A Blueprint of Four Design Archetypes

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular innovations (CI), defined as the redesign of products, services or practices to minimise waste, reduce resource use and regenerate natural systems, are essential for advancing the circular economy. Despite growing recognition, their deployment in systems of linked parts with unpredictable interactions (complex systems) remains limited

Carbon Balance in Salt Marsh and Mangrove Ecosystems: A Global Synthesis

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Mangroves and salt marshes are among the most productive ecosystems in the global coastal ocean. Mangroves store more carbon (739 Mg CORG ha−1) than salt marshes (334 Mg CORG ha−1), but the latter sequester proportionally more (24%) net primary ...

Controls on soil organic carbon stocks in tidal marshes along an estuarine salinity gradient [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2016
Tidal marshes are sedimentary environments and are among the most productive ecosystems on Earth. As a consequence they have the potential to reduce atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations by sequestering organic carbon (OC).

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

The Effectiveness of Shell Bag Restoration in Enhancing Salt Marsh Expansion in Coastal Georgia

open access: yesDiversity
Salt marshes are intertidal ecosystems that provide valuable services like wave attenuation, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration. Unfortunately, due to a combination of factors linked to global climate warming and increased coastal development ...

A systematic review of morphological models of salt marshes

open access: yesWater Science and Engineering, 2023
Salt marshes are among the most important coastal wetlands and provide critical ecological services, including climate regulation, biodiversity maintenance, and blue carbon sequestration.

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.
