The phytosociology of coastal saltmarsh vegetation in New South Wales.

Effects of Shoreline Dynamics on Saltmarsh Vegetation

We evaluated the impact of shoreline dynamics on fringing vegetation density at mid- and low-marsh elevations at a high-energy site in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Particularly, we selected eight unprotected shoreline stretches (75 m each) at a historically eroding site and measured their inter-annual lateral movement rate using the DSAS method for three consecutive years. We observed high inte...

Although termites and ants are very different types of insect, the confusion is understandable as they share some remarkable similarities.
