Invasive species have become a major threat to ecosystem stability, diversity and
sustainability in recent times. Invasive plants such as Spartina alterniflora (SA), outgrow …

Saltmarshes are a blue carbon ecosystem accumulating large quantities of organic carbon
in sediments. Some of this carbon can be transformed into dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) …

Global recognition of climate change and its predicted consequences has created the need
for practical management strategies for increasing the ability of natural ecosystems to …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is a crucial driver in ecosystem services and a central part
of the carbon transport and biological cycle in land-sea interaction. DOM exhibits …

The trace elements contamination of agricultural soils near petrochemical industry
complexes is a concern due to the risk of accumulating in food systems and subsequently …

Extreme drought can have a substantial effect on the soil water content, soil microbial
community structure and function, soil heterotrophic respiration (R h), and soil methane (CH …

Efforts to restore and reclaim coastal wetlands have led to the evolution of invasive alien
plant species and coastal defenses across significant parts of the globe. Synergistic stresses …

Coastal reclamation seriously disturbs coastal wetland ecosystems, while its influences on
soil microbial communities remain unclear. In this study, we examined the impacts of coastal …
