Tidal marsh restoration enhances sediment accretion and carbon accumulation in the Stillaguamish River estuary, Washington. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Tidal marshes have been recognized globally for their ability to sequester "blue carbon" but there is still a need for studies investigating the marsh response to restoration, particularly in the Pacific Northwest United States.

Flooding regimes increase avian predation on wildlife prey in tidal marsh ecosystems [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Within isolated and fragmented populations, species interactions such as predation can cause shifts in community structure and demographics in tidal marsh ecosystems.

Bifurcate responses of tidal range to sea‐level rise in estuaries with marsh evolution
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2022 The response of tidal range in tidal marshes under sea‐level rise (SLR) is essential to the marsh resilience, but how tidal ranges respond to different marsh evolutions remains unclear. Here, we show the existence of bifurcate responses of tidal range to

Biogeomorphic modeling to assess the resilience of tidal-marsh restoration to sea level rise and sediment supply [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2022 There is an increasing demand for the creation and restoration of tidal marshes around the world, as they provide highly valued ecosystem services.

High-Resolution Monitoring of Tidal Systems Using UAV: A Case Study on Poplar Island, MD (USA)
Remote Sensing, 2021 Tidal processes regulating sediment accretion rates and vegetated platform erosion in tidal systems strongly affect salt marsh evolution. A balance between erosion and deposition in a restored salt marsh is crucial for analyzing restoration strategies to

Future Marsh Evolution Due To Tidal Changes Induced by Human Adaptation to Sea Level Rise
Earth's Future, 2023 With sea level rise threatening coastal development, decision‐makers are beginning to act by modifying shorelines. Previous research has shown that hardening or softening shorelines may change the tidal range under future sea level rise.

Effects of natural and anthropogenic change on habitat use and movement of endangered salt marsh harvest mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The northern salt marsh harvest mouse (Reithrodontomys raviventris halicoetes) is an endangered species endemic to the San Francisco Bay Estuary. Using a conservation behavior perspective, we examined how salt marsh harvest mice cope with both natural ...

Characterization of hypersaline zones in salt marshes
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Salt pans are commonly found in coastal marshes and play a vital role in the marsh plant zonation. However, the correlation between these hypersaline zones and the marsh hydrological conditions have barely been characterized.

The Fate of Nitrogen in Dredged Material Used for Tidal Marsh Restoration
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Tidal marsh restoration using dredged material is being undertaken in many coastal areas to replace lost habitat and ecosystem services due to tidal marsh loss.
