Effects of air pollution on ecosystems and biological diversity in the eastern United States
Conservation organizations have most often focused on land‐use change, climate change,
and invasive species as prime threats to biodiversity conservation. Although air pollution is …

Contributions of organic and inorganic matter to sediment volume and accretion in tidal wetlands at steady state
A mixing model derived from first principles describes the bulk density (BD) of intertidal
wetland sediments as a function of loss on ignition (LOI). The model assumes that the bulk …

Effects of nitrogen deposition and empirical nitrogen critical loads for ecoregions of the United States
Human activity in the last century has led to a significant increase in nitrogen (N) emissions
and atmospheric deposition. This N deposition has reached a level that has caused or is …

Vegetation dynamics in Rhode Island salt marshes during a period of accelerating sea level rise and extreme sea level events
KB Raposa, RLJ Weber, MC Ekberg, W Ferguson - Estuaries and Coasts, 2017 - Springer
Sea level rise is a major stressor on many salt marshes, and its impacts include creek
widening, ponding, vegetation dieback, and drowning. Marsh vegetation changes have …

Salt marshes and eutrophication: An unsustainable outcome
RE Turner, BL Howes, JM Teal… - Limnology and …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Most plant production by emergent coastal marshes occurs belowground. This belowground
production adds to the accumulation of organic matter sustaining salt marshes as sea level …
