What is the state of estuarine ecosystem restoration? Many estuaries show no significant ecological improvement despite many years of extensive restoration and conservation efforts. Increasing ...

We calculated daily rates of gross primary production (GPP), community respiration (CR), and net ecosystem production (NEP) in Copano Bay to examine carbon (C) cycling over the course of the year.

Some constituents have weak or no mean spatial structure along the salinity gradient, reflecting spatially distributed sources along the estuary (nitrate) or atmospheric exchanges that buffer spatial ...

Another study compared the bioturbation effects of different species, such as clamworms and crabs, on nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics in estuarine ecosystems. The results indicated that crabs had ...
