Here, however, we reveal how dense vegetation can inhibit sediment accretion on saltmarsh platforms. Using a process-based modeling approach to simulate biogeomorphic development of typical saltmarsh landscapes, we identify two key mechanisms by which vegetation hinders sediment transport from tidal channels toward saltmarsh interiors. First, vegetation concentrates tidal flow and sediment transport inside channels, reducing sediment supply to platforms. Second, vegetation enhances sediment deposition near channels, limiting sediment availability for platform interiors.

This suggests that few of the early-stage individuals present in the western portion of the sampling range will eventually establish themselves in the adult population, highlighting the importance of post-recruitment processes as drivers of population structure.

Stanley","doi":"10.1002/lol2.10432","DOIUrl":"10.1002/lol2.10432","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;Phenology, the study of the seasonal timing of natural phenomena, is a central construct in ecology, focusing on interactions between temporal changes in the physical environment and the structuring of annual organismal, population, community, and ecosystem dynamics (Forrest and Miller-Rushing &lt;span&gt;2010&lt;/span&gt;). In aquatic ecology, phenology explicitly or implicitly forms the basis of several foundational concepts. For example, the match/mismatch hypothesis (Cushing &lt;span&gt;1990&lt;/span&gt;) theorizes that the survival of newly hatched fish larvae will depend on their temporal overlap with peak production of their food resources, namely plankton, and was explicitly developed from earlier phenological studies of phytoplankton (Cushing &lt;span&gt;1967&lt;/span&gt;) and fish spawning (Hjort &lt;span&gt;1914&lt;/span&gt;; Cushing &lt;span&gt;1969&lt;/span&gt;). The Plankton Ecology Group (PEG) model (Sommer et al. &lt;span&gt;1986&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span&gt;2012&lt;/span&gt;) implicitly draws on phenological concepts to explain observed, predictable seasonal succession in plankton communities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Despite the centrality of phenology in how we understand aquatic ecosystems, the study of aquatic phenology lags behind its terrestrial counterpart. We see three related explanations for slower progress in the aquatic realm. First and most simply, observing phenological phenomena in aquatic systems is difficult because they occur out of sight, and monitoring is costly as a result. Terrestrial research has benefited from the wealth of observations collected by well-coordinated volunteer networks (e.g., National Phenology Network [NPN], European Phenology Network, and the Global Phenological Monitoring Programme) that report observations often at a daily timescale outfitted with little to no equipment. Aquatic representation within these programs is largely limited to observations of the appearance of aquatic birds, large fish, amphibians, or budding/blooming of well-known riparian or wetland vegetation. The relative ease of tracking terrestrial organisms has also allowed deeper investigations of the ecological and evolutionary processes driving terrestrial phenology, including the ability of organisms to adapt to shifting seasonality (Anderson et al. &lt;span&gt;2012&lt;/span&gt;; Kingsolver and Buckley &lt;span&gt;2015&lt;/span&gt;). Thus, it is not surprising that a literature search on the study of phenology reveals a terrestrial bias, with studies dominated by topics such as the timing of bird migration or the appearance of various developmental stages among a range of plant species and locations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Second, the problem of observing subsurface events or behaviors is compounded by the short life cycles and small body sizes of key aquatic groups. Short generation times mean that notable phenological events occur rapidly and briefly, and small body sizes allow many species to escape notice even under the best of circumstances. Thus, one cannot track the appearance and decline of a spring phytoplankton bloom or the emergence of zooplankto","PeriodicalId":18128,"journal":{"name":"Limnology and Oceanography Letters","volume":"9 5","pages":"506-511"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/lol2.10432","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142231650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
