Spartina alterniflora, a perennial grass with C4-photosynthesis, shows great invading
potential in the coastal ecosystems in the east of China. We compared trace gas emissions …

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 …

Spartina alterniflora was intentionally introduced to China in 1979 for the purpose of
sediment stabilization and dike protection, and has continuously replaced native plants or …

Coastal salt marshes are sensitive to global climate change and may play an important role
in mitigating global warming. To evaluate the impacts of Spartina alterniflora invasion on …

To understand the effect of water level on CH4 emissions from an invasive Spartina
alterniflora coastal brackish marsh, we measured CH4 emissions from intermittently and …

Mangroves are critical in global carbon budget while vulnerable to exotic plant invasion.
Spartina alterniflora, one of typical salt marsh plant grows forcefully along the coast of China …

Many studies have found that plant invasion can enhance soil organic carbon (SOC) pools,
by increasing net primary production (NPP) and/or decreased soil respiration. While most …

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 …

Background The important greenhouse gas (GHG) methane is produced naturally in
anaerobic wetland soils. By affecting the production, oxidation and transport of methane to …

We measured methane emissions together with acetate, DMS, sulfate, and dissolved
methane concentrations in pore waters from adjacent marsh plant communities in an …
