Spartina anglica population and environmental studies within the Solent salt marsh system

open access: yes, 2010
The thesis examines the possible causes of decline of Spartina anglica marshes along the south coast of Britain with emphasis on the Solent marshes. The study shows that although there may be some genotypic differences between S.

Investigation and assessment of ecological water resources in the salt marsh area of a salt lake: A case study of West Taijinar Lake in the Qaidam Basin, China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The water ecology of salt marshes plays a crucial role in climate regulation, industrial production, and flood control. Due to a poor understanding of water ecology and the extensive mining of salt resources, concerns are mounting about declining ...

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.

Characterization of salt marshes subsoil using electromagnetic induction method: case studies in the Venice Lagoon

open access: yes, 2023
reservedThe study used electromagnetic induction method (EMI), to characterize the subsoil of the northern Venice Lagoon. The study area is a salt marsh located in a highly saline environment. In such conditions, the use of geophysical electrical methods

Context‐engineering large language models for scalable structured metadata extraction in ecological literature reviews

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Hundreds of thousands of peer‐reviewed articles and grey‐literature reports appear each year in ecology and conservation, creating a pressing need for scalable synthesis tools. We demonstrate that transformer‐based Large Language Models (LLMs), when embedded within a practical, expert‐in‐the‐loop pipeline, offer a reliable path forward ...

Bio-geomorphic patterns in tidal environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In times of natural and anthropogenic climate change, tidal bio-geomorphic systems are most exposed to possibly irreversible transformations with far-reaching ecological and socio-economic implications.

Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.

Learning Across the Divide: Understanding Knowledge Sharing Through Petrographic Analysis on Ceramics From the Rhine‐Meuse Delta During the Middle to Late Neolithic Transition (3400–2200 bce)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vlaardingen (VL) communities on the Dutch West coast (3400–2200 bce) are part of a unique, long‐term continuity in the European Neolithic. Despite large‐scale changes in European populations during the Neolithic, the genomic diversity and cultural practices of VL communities can be retraced to the Mesolithic.

Impact of cutting and sheep grazing on ground-active spiders and carabids in intertidal salt marshes (Western France) [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2007
The aims of this study were to characterize spider (Araneae) and ground beetle (Coleoptera Carabidae) communities in managed (cutting and sheep grazing) and non-managed salt marshes and to assess the efficiency of management regimes in these particular ...
