Tidal Marshes across a Chesapeake Bay Subestuary Are Not Keeping up with Sea-Level Rise
Sea-level rise is a major factor in wetland loss worldwide, and in much of Chesapeake Bay (USA) the rate of sea-level rise is higher than the current global rate of 3.2 mm yr-1 due to regional subsidence. Marshes along estuarine salinity gradients differ in vegetation composition, productivity, decomposition pathways, and sediment dynamics, and may exhibit different responses to sea-level rise....
متن کاملEvaluating Tidal Marsh Sustainability in the Face of Sea-Level Rise: A Hybrid Modeling Approach Applied to San Francisco Bay
BACKGROUND Tidal marshes will be threatened by increasing rates of sea-level rise (SLR) over the next century. Managers seek guidance on whether existing and restored marshes will be resilient under a range of potential future conditions, and on prioritizing marsh restoration and conservation activities. METHODOLOGY Building upon established models, we developed a hybrid approach that involve...
متن کاملTidal marsh plant responses to elevated CO2 , nitrogen fertilization, and sea level rise.
Elevated CO2 and nitrogen (N) addition directly affect plant productivity and the mechanisms that allow tidal marshes to maintain a constant elevation relative to sea level, but it remains unknown how these global change drivers modify marsh plant response to sea level rise. Here we manipulated factorial combinations of CO2 concentration (two levels), N availability (two levels) and relative se...
متن کاملGenerating Tidal Energy and its Apllications in Northern Coasts of Persian Gulf and Oman Sea
Tidal energy is a clean, reliable and available energy that exits vastly. Moreover, it can be offered to most of coastal regions and cities. This clean energy can be used in littoral zones worldwide , together with islands and coasts ofIransuch as Chabahar. Furthermore, from ecosystem point of view, this energy is useful for increasing coral reefs and also using organic materials in diffe...
متن کاملCan community structure track sea‐level rise? Stress and competitive controls in tidal wetlands
Climate change impacts, such as accelerated sea-level rise, will affect stress gradients, yet impacts on competition/stress tolerance trade-offs and shifts in distributions are unclear. Ecosystems with strong stress gradients, such as estuaries, allow for space-for-time substitutions of stress factors and can give insight into future climate-related shifts in both resource and nonresource stres...
