Although mangroves possess a variety of morphological and physiological adaptations for
life in a stressful habitat, interspecific differences in survival and growth under different …

This study examines possible relationships between stress tolerance by marine algae and
distributions of these species. The ability to recover photosynthetic activity following …

Several winter rainstorms that occurred between 1982 and 1986 deposited a large amount
of virgin sediment, covering approximately 0.25 ha at the mouth of Pine Gulch Creek in a …

Ecological zonation of salt marsh macrophytes is strongly influenced by hydrologic factors,
but these factors are poorly understood. We examined groundwater flow patterns through …

The effects of salinity, temperature, and pH variations on growth, survival, and
photosynthetic rates of the seagrass Halophila johnsonii Eiseman were examined. Growth …

Soil salinity is generally spatially heterogeneous, but our understanding of halophyte
physiology under such conditions is limited. The growth and physiology of the …

Young plants of Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh, were subjected to a factorial experiment
with three concentrations of NaCl (0.1, 0.3, 0.5 M) and three of NH4C1 (0.14, 1.4, 14 mg NI …

Abstract Background and Aims Atriplex (Halimione) portulacoides is a halophytic, C3 shrub.
It is virtually confined to coastal salt marshes, where it often dominates the vegetation. The …

Ecophysiology of Vascular Halophytes provides a useful update to existing literature
describing the ecophysiological responses of vascular halophytes to environmental stresses …

Five inland halophytes, Atriplex prostrata, Hordeum jubatum, Salicornia europaea,
Spergularia marina, and Suaeda calceoliformis, were grown in controlled laboratory …
