Direct observation of surface displacement in two New England salt marshes shows that shrinking and swelling of the sediment is an important mechanism for water storage. This mechanism accounts for 20 per cent of the total change in water content of the sediment in Belle Isle marsh, Massachusetts, a
The relation between decomposition rates; and soil salinity and moisture conditions in tidal marshes of the Westerschelde estuary was investigated. In the first part of the study, these soil factors were experimentally manipulated in field plots which were either screened from rainwater or which rec
