Fringing marshes are abundant ecosystems that dominate the New England coastline. Despite their abundance, very little baseline data is available from them and few studies have documented the ecosystems services that they provide. This informati[...]

Adjoined watershed-estuary-coastal ecosystems are coupled by biogeochemical and hydrodynamic processes, as Scott Nixon repeatedly argued in his many contributions. Case histories from Waquoit Bay and the Pacific Coast of Panama, supplemented by [...]

Salt marshes have a long history of tidal restriction, resulting in marsh compaction, subsidence, reduced tidal range, and invasion of nonnative species that impair nekton support functions. At Cape Cod National Seashore, the availability of hig[...]

Variations in the fish community structure in Omura Bay, an enclosed bay in the East China Sea, were investigated using long-term fishery landing data over the past five decades (1965-2006). We confirmed that the fish community structure in Omur[...]

Despite the fact that Anguilla rostrata (American eel) are frequently captured in salt marshes, their role in salt marsh food webs and the influence of human impacts, such as tidal restrictions, on this role remains unclear. To better understand[...]

Abundance and diet of larger predatory fishes in Phragmites marsh creeks were compared with those in natural Spartina alterniflora marshes and Phragmites marshes exposed to herbicides and burning (treated marshes). The most abundant fishes (n = [...]

High marsh pools are natural features in New England salt marshes that provide important subtidal refuge for the dominant resident fish, Fundulus heteroclitus (mummichog). F. heteroclitus is considered an important component in the trophic trans[...]

We used carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios to identify changes in organic matter (OM) sources supporting fish larvae along the river-lake mixing zone in three Lake Superior coastal tributaries. We used a stable isotope mixing model to qua[...]

Most salt marshes in the USA have been degraded by human activities, and coastal managers are faced with complex choices among possible actions to restore or enhance ecosystem integrity. We applied structured decision making (SDM) to guide selec[...]

Sea level rise and accompanying coastal squeeze will drive changes in marsh spatial configuration and connectivity affecting how fishes utilize the marsh. We investigate how sea level rise and coastal squeeze affect the spatial distribution, con[...]

Fringing marshes are important but often overlooked components of estuarine systems. Due to their relatively small size and large edge to area ratio, they are particularly vulnerable to impacts from adjacent upland development. Because current s[...]

The objective of this study was to determine the seasonal incidence of ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) in the water column of the Patos Lagoon estuary and the effects of UV radiation (UVR) at different organizational levels. Field wo[...]

The combined impact of solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and elevated temperature on the photosynthesis of phytoplankton communities from the two end members of the Chubut River estuary was studied using short- and long-term incubations. Samples[...]

Following widespread deterioration of coastal ecosystems since the 1960s, current environmental policies demand ecosystem recovery and restoration. However, vague definitions of recovery and untested recovery paradigms complicate efficient stewa[...]

Resilience is currently a key theme within salt marsh ecological studies. Understanding the factors that affect salt marsh accretion and elevation gains is of paramount importance if management of these ecosystems is to be successful under incre[...]
