Mangroves and salt marshes are among the most productive ecosystems in the global
coastal ocean. Mangroves store more carbon (739 Mg CORG ha− 1) than salt marshes (334 …

Coastal wetlands host large and dynamic reservoirs of organic carbon (C) and are also
biogeochemical hotspots for a wide range of Fe (hydr-) oxides with different chemical …

Salinization, a widespread threat to the structure and ecological functioning of inland and
coastal wetlands, is currently occurring at an unprecedented rate and geographic scale. The …

Understanding the fate and transport of engineered and naturally-occurring nanoparticles is
vital to predicting their ecological and toxicological impacts. Much of the current literature …

Background Salt marshes are dominated by the smooth cordgrass Spartina alterniflora on
the US Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coastlines. Although soil microorganisms are well known …

Identifying the mobilization mechanisms and predicting the potential toxicity risk of metals in
sediment are essential to contamination remediation in river basins. In this study, a …

Globally, a vast extent of tidal wetlands will be threatened by sea-level-rise-induced
salinization. Because ferric (hydro) oxides [Fe (III)] play a crucial role in soil organic carbon …

In this chapter, we present an overview of the processing and cycling of the major
biologically relevant elements (C, N, P, S, and Fe) in salt marshes. In keeping with the …

In a detailed study of the biogeochemical factors affecting the methylation of mercury in a
Chesapeake Bay salt marsh, we examined relationships between mercury methylation and …

Rising sea levels have increased the risk of intense flooding in tidal wetlands, potentially
leading to rises in soil iron-bound organic carbon (Fe-OC) contents by inhibiting microbial …
