Effects of the Water-Sediment Regulation Scheme on the Expansion of Spartina alterniflora at the Yellow River Estuary, China
In recent decades, the invasion of saltmarsh plant Spartina alterniflora (S. alterniflora) over a large part of coastal wetlands in China, including the Yellow River Estuary (YRE) as a regional…
How Does Spartina alterniflora Invade in Salt Marsh in Relation to Tidal Channel Networks? Patterns and Processes
TLDR
The results implicated that early control of S. alterniflora invasion should pay close attention to higher-order tidal channels as the main pathway, and a strong association with tidal channel networks.
Tidal and Meteorological Influences on the Growth of Invasive Spartina alterniflora: Evidence from UAV Remote Sensing
TLDR
This is the first spatially explicit quantitative study to examine the influences of tidal and meteorological regimes on both spatial heterogeneity (over the intertidal zone) and temporal variation (intraand inter-annual) of S. alterniflora at both patch and landscape scales.
The size and distribution of tidal creeks affects salt marsh restoration.
Seasonal soil-plant nitrogen dynamics of a cordgrass salt marsh in response to coastal embankments in Eastern China
The effects of coastal embankments on nitrogen (N) cycling in the Spartina alterniflora salt marsh have been extensively reported. However, it remains unclear effects of the embankment on the sizes…

Pure, shared, and coupling effects of climate change and sea level rise on the future distribution of Spartina alterniflora along the Chinese coast
TLDR
Investigating interactions among variables and identifying the impacts of climate change, sea level rise, and their interactions on the distribution of Spartina alterniflora will provide scientific references for assessing the risk of similar coastal species.

TLDR
