Situated in the center of Turkey's most significant wetland, the Kızılırmak delta, is the research area. In this study, remote sensing methods and field observations were used together, and the collected data were interpreted with an interdisciplinary approach by experts in geomorphology, ornithology, ichthyology, botany, physical geography, and environmental engineering. The Altınkaya and Derbent dams built on the Kızılırmak river negatively affected the sediment budget of the delta. Significant part of the dried floodplains was turned into agricultural field. Later, the stream was taken into an artificial canal. The former bed parts outside the canal turned into lakes and swamps. For this reason, between 1990 and 2021, the coastline was retreated by 500 m, 75.1 ha of wetland were converted into agricultural land and 18.1 ha of new lake area was created. The biological and hydrological features of the study region changed as a result of these changes; habitats were fragmented, animal breeding and nesting grounds were damaged, and some animal populations tended to decline. Despite this, many artificial lakes still have wetland characteristics and can be preserved as a suitable habitat for many different plants and animals. In light of this study, it is advised that the current wetland management plan be carefully revised and implemented.</p>","PeriodicalId":23640,"journal":{"name":"Wetlands","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used data from 22 wetland mitigation banks in the Chicago District of the Army Corps to determine how successful banks were at meeting mandatory ecological performance standards by the end of a required monitoring period. We found that banks typically struggled to meet performance standards limiting dominance by non-native species, although they often met standards related to native species richness and dominance.

In this study, sorption rate kinetics experiments were designed to constrain new formulations of a sediment flux model coded to include explicit sorption between soil organic carbon and DOC pools. Batch incubations for marsh soil samples from Taskinas Creek (VA, USA) and Jug Bay Wetlands Sanctuary (MD, USA) were performed anaerobically under four sets of initial conditions: permutations of two salinities (0, 35) and two DOC concentrations (0 mg L<sup>-1</sup>, 275 mg L<sup>-1</sup>). Rates were measured at seven time points over 24 h. These results are the first DOC sorption kinetics data for tidal marsh soils, revealing that 76% of total sorption occurred within 15 min. The results also revealed higher capacity for adsorption under high DOC concentrations and salinity, with differences in magnitude between soil types. Numerical models simulating processes from these experiments provided a range of rates by fitting linear first order and non-linear ordinary differential equations to the kinetic change in DOC concentration curves over time. The outputs suggested that introducing soil adsorption capacity improved model fits across all cases. These results provide a deeper understanding of the biogeochemical controls on sorption kinetics and suggest that it is crucial to incorporate sorption processes into sediment flux models to accurately represent DOC fluxes from tidal marshes.</p>","PeriodicalId":23640,"journal":{"name":"Wetlands","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141744594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, effects of management intensities on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the global warming potential (GWP) are widely unknown. This study assessed whether intensities of two and five annual harvest occurrences at fertilisation rates of 200 kg nitrogen ha<sup>− 1</sup> yr<sup>− 1</sup> affects GHG exchange dynamics compared to a ‘nature scenario’ with neither harvest nor fertilisation. Fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), methane (CH<sub>4</sub>), and nitrous oxide (N<sub>2</sub>O), using opaque and transparent chambers, were measured on a wet fen peatland with a mean water table depth of -10 cm below soil surface. Overall, no treatment effect was found on biomass yields and GHG emissions. Annual cumulative CH<sub>4</sub> emissions were low, ranging between 0.3 and 0.5 t CO<sub>2</sub>-C eq ha<sup>− 1</sup> yr<sup>− 1</sup>. Contrary to this, emissions of N<sub>2</sub>O were high, ranging between 1.1 and 1.5 t CO<sub>2</sub>-C eq ha<sup>− 1</sup> yr<sup>− 1</sup>. For magnitudes of CH<sub>4</sub> and N<sub>2</sub>O, soil moisture conditions and electrical peat properties were critical proxies. Atmospheric uptake of CO<sub>2</sub> by net ecosystem exchange was higher for the treatments with management. However, this benefit was offset by the export of carbon in biomass compared to the treatment without management. In conclusion, the results highlighted a near-equal GWP in the range of 10.5–11.5 t CO<sub>2</sub>-C eq t ha<sup>− 1</sup> yr<sup>− 1</sup> for all treatments irrespectively of management.

Annual CO<sub>2</sub> emissions from soil respiration averaged to 21,600 kg ha<sup>-1</sup> (April-November) corresponding to carbon (C) loss of 5890 kg ha<sup>-1</sup>. The CO<sub>2</sub> emissions were highly temperature dependent. Lowering the groundwater level (GWL) was found to increase the CO<sub>2</sub> emissions nearly linearly.

The CH<sub>4</sub> emissions occurred generally when soil water content (SWC) exceeded 0.6 m<sup>3</sup> m<sup>-3</sup> and when GWL was at the depth of less than 30 cm from soil surface. For optimal climate efficiency the mitigation measures must be implemented during the mid-growing season, and the water table should be brought close to the soil surface.

We first examine inter-wetland differences between five mainstem wetlands by hierarchical cluster analysis, NMDS and PERMANOVA, identifying two mainstem groups: one comprising of two middle reach wetlands (Detroit River Marshes and Grass Island), the second showed similarities among wetlands across all reaches (Turkey Creek, River Canard and Peche Island). The latter groupings shared similar habitat characteristics, deeper and finer grain-sizes, and functional feeding group characteristics - low abundances of shredders. Second objective, we perform an intra-wetland comparison for Turkey Creek and River Canard to analyze for differences along tributaries. At neither River Canard nor Turkey Creek we observed significant tributary influence on mainstem communities but had found the Turkey Creek tributary communities significantly differed from the channel communities. Diversity metrics and Hilsenhoff Biotic Index illustrate strained benthic communities across the river. We had also found water quality to be consistently moderately degraded.

To address uncertainties, the Combined Operations Pilotage Parties (COPP) conducted covert beach surveys, collecting substrate samples crucial for operational planning. These missions, undertaken under challenging conditions, identified suitable landing areas by analysing sediment composition and bearing capacities. The success of D-Day was, in part, attributed to the insights provided by wetland scientists, who highlighted the significance of substrate properties in operational success. Their contributions underscored the interdisciplinary nature of wartime planning, integrating scientific expertise with military strategy.
