Saline Systems addresses the publication needs of scientists conducting basic and applied research on coastal and inland saline environments and their flora and fauna. The journal covers research at all levels, from individual genes to whole genomes and entire ecosystems. Rapid progress in the molecular biology and microbial ecology of halotolerant and halophilic organisms and the sensitivity o...

We evaluate regional differences in road recovery in Miyagi Prefecture following the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake. We divided Miyagi Prefecture into three areas, i.e., Inland, Northern Coastal, and Southern Coastal areas. According to the results of our study, we conclude that the recovery conditions of regional roads in different areas of Miyagi Prefecture following the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake differ...

This study presents a regional assessment of CO2-solubility trapping potential (CSTP) in the Texas coastal and offshore Miocene interval, comprising lower, middle, and upper Miocene sandstone. Duan's solubility model [Duan et al. Mar. Chem. 2006, 98, 131-139] was applied to estimate carbon content in brine saturated with CO2 at reservoir conditions. Three approaches (simple, coarse, and fine) w...

There are major differences in the bioproduction potential of different coastal areas. The aim of this work is to review and discuss simple, operational criteria related to the bioproduction potential of coastal areas and to present and motivate an Index of Biological Value (IBV) for coastal management. This index is based on two key variables, which can be determined easily from bathymetric ma...

The purpose of this article is to analyze the changes in salinity arable soils north Crimea peninsula from 2013 2019 using Landsat 8 OLI satellite data order obtain additional and objective information about modern state soil secondary salinization processes. Comparison showed that area North-Crimean Canal there both a slight expansion areas saline their reduction. observed mainly coastal zones...

sensitive coastal areas are fragile ecosystems affected by geographic features and in the same time settlements were developed around these areas due to their ecological capability. coastal ecosystems due to their countless benefits are very important for protection. hence, this paper attempts to determine the sensitivity of coastal ecosystem to disturbances in hormozgan province. we reviewed 2...
