Salt marshes are critically important for a range of ecosystem services including nutrient
filtration and carbon sequestration. Despite this, salt marshes are subjected to a variety of …

Salt marshes have the ability to store large amounts of'blue carbon', potentially mitigating
some of the effects of climate change. Salt marsh carbon storage may be partially offset by …

Throughout the eastern USA many Spartina alterniflora salt-marsh systems are being
altered through the invasion of Phragmites australis. As a result, substantial declines in the …

We compared hydrology and porewater chemistry along transects in 3 tidal marshes
vegetated by Spartina alterniflora and by the invasive species Phragmites australis. Relative …

Phragmites australis is invasive in Atlantic coastal salt marshes and often replaces the
native cordgrass, Spartina alterniflora. Our research focused on benthic communities found …

Coastal wetlands are known for exceptional productivity, but they also receive intense land-
based nitrogen (N) loading. In Narragansett Bay, RI (USA), coastal ecosystems have …

Spartina alterniflora exhibits great invading potential in the coastal marsh ecosystems. Also,
nitrogen (N) deposition shows an apparent increase in the east of China. To evaluate CH4 …

Vegetation alteration and nitrogen inputs (via run-off, atmospheric deposition, and
wastewater) as a result of anthropogenic activities strongly affected the emission of N 2 O …

We explored the nature and impact of competitive interactions between the salt marsh
foundational plant Spartina alterniflora and invasive Phragmites australis in New England …

Salt marshes along the northeastern coast of the United States are increasingly subject to
changes in hydrology and enrichment with nitrogen as a result of human activities. We …
