(Elsevier Science, 2011-05)
Marshes are considered exporters of organic material, with tides being one of the most studied transport mechanisms. However, animal movements can enhance this energy transport and even, in some cases, import energy to ...
Biogeography of salt marsh plant zonation on the pacific coast of south america
(2018)
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the biogeography of plant zonation in salt marshes on the Pacific coast of South America; to examine whether salt marsh plant zonation varies with latitude; and to explore the ...
Mechanism of removal and retention of heavy metals from the acid mine drainage to coastal wetland in the Patagonian marsh
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
The attenuation of the acid mine drainage is one of the most important environmental challenges facing the mining industry worldwide. Mining waste deposits from an ancient metallurgical extraction of heavy metals were found ...
Can a Single Species Challenge Paradigms of Salt Marsh Functioning?
(Springer, 2015-07)
Over the history of ecology, well-established generalizations were refined or even changed after the appearance or consideration of new evidence. Here, we review results obtained in Southwestern Atlantic salt marshes ...
Does low temperature prevent Spartina alterniflora from expanding toward the austral-most salt marshes?
(Springer, 2011-04)
Along the Atlantic coast of South America, the northern salt marshes (lower than 43°S) are dominated by Spartina species while the southern salt marshes (greater than 43°S) are dominated by Sarcocornia perennis. The most ...
A characterization of Patagonian salt marshes
(Springer, 2009-06)
We combined literature reviews with an analysis of regional cartography, aerial photographs, and satellite images to identify the locations of heretofore-unknown salt marshes along the Patagonian coastline of Argentina. ...
