Does the invasive plant Elymus athericus modify fish diet in tidal salt marshes?
The invasion of Mont-Saint-Michel Bay salt marshes (France) by a grass species (Elymus athericus) has led to important changes in vegetation cover, which is likely to modify the habitat for many invertebrates. Some of them constitute the main food items for several fish species, such as young sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and sand goby (Pomatoschistus minutus), that feed in salt marsh creeks ...
متن کاملChanges in salt-marsh carabid assemblages after an invasion by the native grass Elymus athericus (Link) Kerguélen
As a result of an invasion by the native grass Elymus athericus (Link) Kerguélen (Poaceae) in the last 10 years, a major change in vegetation cover has occurred in salt marshes of the Mont Saint-Michel bay, Western France. The impact of such an invasion on carabid assemblages, a dominant group of terrestrial arthropods in these habitats and containing several stenotopic species, is investigated...
متن کاملConsumer control of salt marshes driven by human disturbance.
Salt marsh ecosystems are widely considered to be controlled exclusively by bottom-up forces, but there is mounting evidence that human disturbances are triggering consumer control in western Atlantic salt marshes, often with catastrophic consequences. In other marine ecosystems, human disturbances routinely dampen (e.g., coral reefs, sea grass beds) and strengthen (e.g., kelps) consumer contro...
متن کاملChange Detection in Wadden Sea Areas Using Rapideye Data
The tidal areas of the oceans are important transition zones between terrestrial and marine ecosystems. In contrast to the non-marine surface of the earth, access to the tidal lands such as the Wadden Sea along the North Sea coast is often difficult. For this reason, remote sensing offers important monitoring tools. In this study, a new change detection approach is presented, adapted to the Wad...
