Seawater intrusion into low‐lying coastal ecosystems carries environmental risks. Salinity
levels at these coastal ecosystems may vary substantially, causing ecological effects from …

Excess salinity can affect the growth and development of all plants. Salinization jeopardizes
agroecosystems, induces oxidative reactions in most cultivated plants and reduces biomass …

Body size is a critical component of organismal biology. Body size is known to be influenced
by a plethora of environmental conditions, among which exposure to large scale variations …

Increasing salinity in freshwater environments is a growing problem due both to the negative
influences of salts on ecosystems and their accumulation and persistence in environments …

The application of roadway deicing salts is increasing the salinity of freshwater systems.
Increased salinization from salts, such as NaCl, CaCl 2 and MgCl 2, can have direct …

Increased salinity is an emerging contaminant of concern for aquatic taxa. For amphibians
exposed to salinity, there is scarce information about the physiological effects and changes …

The amphibian decline crisis has been challenging to address because of the complexity of
factors—and their multitude of interactive effects—that drive this global issue. Dissecting …

Coastal wetlands are naturally subjected to salinity, which is expected to increase through
global climate changes. Most species will be affected by these changes, leading to major …

Environmental salinization is recognized as a global threat affecting biodiversity, particularly
in coastal ecosystems (affected by sea level rise and increased frequency and severity of …

Salinization of freshwater ecosystems, due to the application of road salts, is recognized as
a potential threat to aquatic communities. Much of the research on the impact of salinity has …
