The mechanisms of salt stress response and tolerance have eluded definition despite
reasonable success in defining their physiological manifestations. In this review, we …

After several decades of intensive research in salt marshes, both community structure and
basic ecological processes are reasonably well understood (44, 50, 78, 88). Further up the …

1 We investigated the factors producing zonation patterns of the dominant plants in south-
eastern USA salt marshes where Juncus roemerianus dominates the high marsh, and …

The water use characteristics of two mangrove species, Aegiceras corniculatum and
Avicennia marina, in salinities of 50, 250 and 500 mol m-3 NaCI and leaf-to-air vapour …

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

This paper presents a detailed analysis of several hundred plant carbon exchange rate
(CER) and dry weight (DW) responses to atmospheric CO 2 enrichment determined over the …

Panicum hemitomon, Spartina patens, and Spartina alterniflora are wide-spread dominant
grasses of fresh, brackish, and salt marsh plant communities, respectively. Our previous …

Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) plants were grown at five soil salinity levels (1, 2, 4, 9 and 13
dS m-1) to analyse the effects on growth, dry matter partitioning, leaf expansion and water …

Salicornia bigelovii Torr. plants were grown in 5, 200, or 600 mol m-3 NaCl, representing
suboptimal, optimal, and supraoptimal salinities, respectively. Shoot fresh and dry mass of …

The rapid decline in the extent and health of coastal salt marshes has created a need for
nondestructive methods for evaluating the condition of salt marsh ecosystems. This paper …
