Success of managed realignment for the restoration of salt-marsh biodiversity: preliminary results on ground-active spiders
Since the early 1990s managed realignment, where formerly reclaimed land is re-exposed to tidal inundation through breaching of coastal embankments, has been increasingly used throughout Northern Europe as a cost effective and sustainable response to biodiversity loss and flood management. This study aimed to evaluate the success of managed realignment schemes that resulted in salt-marsh develo...

متن کاملUsing Avian Communities to Evaluate Salt Marsh Restoration
The objectives of this study were to document avian species inhabiting West River Memorial Park in New Haven, Connecticut and develop goals for restoration of a salt marsh bird community. Restoration goals were based on the breeding season bird community at the restoration site, breeding season communities of less disturbed salt marshes, and a literature review. Community descriptions included ...
متن کاملSalt Marsh Tidal Channels
Salt marsh tidal channels are highly sinuous. For this project, field surveys and aerial photographs were used to characterize the planform of tidal channels at China Camp Marsh in the San Francisco Bay, California. To model the planform evolution, we assume that the topographic curvature of the channel centreline is a key element driving meander migration. Extraction of curvature data from a p...
متن کاملSalt Marsh Restoration in Connecticut: 20 Years of Science and Management
In 1980 the State of Connecticut began a tidal marsh restoration program targeting systems degraded by tidal restrictions and impoundments. Such marshes become dominated by common reed grass ( Phragmites australis ) and cattail ( Typha angustifolia and T. latifolia ), with little ecological connection to Long Island Sound. The management and scientific hypothesis was that returning tidal action...
