Our incubation results suggest that the formation of siderite can be very rapid (about two weeks or within 400 hr) when there is a substantial source of iron, either from microbial iron reduction or from steel material; however, a source of dissolved iron is not enough to induce siderite ...
drives sediment deposition on marsh edges — a process that leads to the formation of levees, or elevated bands of sediment, along the margins of marsh channels and tidal creeks. As tidewaters flood from channels and creeks onto marsh platforms, flow velocities decrease and suspended sediments set...

Runnels, a climate adaptation technique that drains surface water to restore marsh vegetation and habitat, are increasingly being used to prevent the formation of shallow water impoundments or pannes in salt marshes that result in the loss of important ecosystem services. However, we know little abo...
A new eco-morphodynamic model is developed accounting for facilitation, competition and predation in mangrove-saltmarsh ecotones Ecotone dynamics at intertidal scale are determined by herbivory and the relative growth properties between mangroves and saltmarshes Tidal networks in saltmarsh-dominant ecotones ...
Vegetation stabilizes the channel banks, which allows for the development of meanders10, while vegetation also concentrates flow into the channels, maintaining their depth by removing sediment that would otherwise accumulate3. Meanders snaking across the marsh surface reduce the uncha...

The original goal of the project was to investigate the role of groundwater and elevation on marsh dieback and recovery. The project also aimed to characterize vegetation, elevation and soils at dieback sites, and map and evaluate the extent of the dieback at the study site. ...
Vegetation characteristics at the marsh edge were obtained by Vuik et al. (2016), for the brackish salt marsh Zimmermanpolder (3; called Bath in Vuik et al. (2016)) and more salty salt marsh Hellegatpolder (6). The brackish species Scirpus maritimus was found at Zimmermanpolder (3), whi...
A variety of plants can grow in salt marshes, adapted to both a high salinity and the partial inundation of the marsh by sea water. Salt marsh vegetation forms spatial patterns consisting of alternating vegetation patches entrenched by creeks through which seawater can flow (Bertness and Ellison ...
