ABSTRACT Understanding how low salinity gradients (0‰–5‰) influence fish life cycles is critical for clarifying principles of fish assemblage formation in estuarine ecosystems. This study is intended to provide a foundation for predicting changes in fish populations amidst ongoing surface salinity decreases in the Baltic Sea. In the Neva River Estuary,

Trophic interactions between native and alien palaemonid prawns and an alien gammarid in a brackish water ecosystem [PDF]
Macroalgae are an important habitat for small mobile invertebrates such as gammarid amphipods and palaemonid prawns. Gammarid amphipods are important grazers of micro- and macroalgae whereas palaemonid prawns are feeding on macroalgae and small aquatic ...

Eutrophication and urbanization enhance methane emissions from coastal lagoons
Abstract Coastal lagoons are important nutrient filters and carbon sinks but may release large amounts of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. Here, we hypothesize that eutrophication and population density will turn coastal lagoons into stronger methane emitters. We report benthic fluxes from 187 sediment cores incubated from three of the largest European

This paper discusses some new paradigms concerning the origin and significance of deltas and their deposits. It proposes a broader definition of deltas that takes into account the importance of sediment‐laden fluvial discharges in controlling deltaic sedimentation.

Distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates across a reed stand in a brackish Baltic lagoon
The role of reeds in the functioning of ecosystems and their significance for zoobenthos in the coastal lagoons is poorly understood. We hypothesise that next to the spatial zonal differentiation of abiotic factors in the apparently homogeneous habitat ...

Impact of the Artificial Strait in the Vistula Spit on the Hydrodynamics of the Vistula Lagoon (Baltic Sea) [PDF]
In the Vistula Lagoon, storm surges are induced by variable sea levels in the Gulf of Gdańsk and wind action. The rising of the water level in the southern part of the basin, exceeding 1.0 m above mean sea level, can be dangerous for the lowland area of Żuławy Elbląskie, causing the inundation of the polders adjacent to the lagoon. One of the potential
