Trophic levels of Tidal and Non-Tidal Marshes of Southern Mesopotamia

open access: yesMaǧallaẗ al-baṣraẗ al-ʻulūm al-zirāʻiyyaẗ, 2020
Carlson’s Trophic State Index (CTSI) was applied to assess the trophic status of two kind of southern Mesopotima marshes. Six stations were selected, three in non-tidal Chebiyesh marshes and other three in tidal East Hammer marsh.

Drainage Efficiency and Geometric Nuances of Tidal Channel Network Mediate Spartina alterniflora Landward Invasion in Marsh-Channel System

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
As an aggressive invasive salt marsh plant, Spartina alterniflora has been found to invade along tidal channel networks and threaten native salt marsh ecosystems. Previous studies have established patterning correlations between S.

Export of macroinvertebrate prey from tidal freshwater wetlands provides a significant energy subsidy for outmigrating juvenile salmon.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Tidal freshwater wetlands linking terrestrial, riverine, and saline habitats are critical areas for material processing and exchange. Once historically widespread, herbaceous marsh and forested tidal freshwater wetlands especially are now highly degraded

Marsh migration and beyond: A scalable framework to assess tidal wetland resilience and support strategic management.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Tidal wetlands are critical but highly threatened ecosystems that provide vital services. Efficient stewardship of tidal wetlands requires robust comparative assessments of different marshes to understand their resilience to stressors, particularly in ...

Exploring the Impacts of Seagrass on Coupled Marsh-Tidal Flat Morphodynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2018
Intertidal coastal environments are prone to changes induced by sea level rise, increases in storminess, temperature, and anthropogenic disturbances. It is unclear how changes in external drivers may affect the dynamics of low energy coastal environments

Composition of fish communities in macrotidal salt marshes of the Mont Saint-Michel bay (France) [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Salt marsh establishment in poorly consolidated muddy systems: effects of surface drainage, elevation, and plant age

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Conservation and restoration of salt marsh ecosystems are becoming increasingly important because of the many ecosystem services they provide. However, the processes controlling salt marsh establishment and persistence, especially on bare tidal flats in ...

European salt marshes diversity and functioning: the case study of the Mont Saint-Michel bay, France [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The macrotidal Mont Saint-Michel bay has been studied intensively since 1990. The objectives of this study, supported by the European Union, was to understand various processes underlying the functioning of this hydrosystem with a special focus on ...
