Above- and belowground production in coastal wetlands are important contributors to carbon accumulation and ecosystem sustainability. As sea level rises, we can expect shifts to more salt-tolerant communities, which may alter these ecosystem functions and services. Although the direct influence of salinity on species-level primary production has been documented, we lack an understanding of the landscape-level response of coastal wetlands to increasing salinity. What are the indirect effects of sea-level rise, i.e. how does primary production vary across a landscape gradient of increasing salinity that incorporates changes in wetland type? We measured above- and belowground production in four wetland types that span...

Carbon isotope discrimination (?) was measured for leaves of Atriplex confertifolia along a salinity gradient in northern Utah. Over this gradient, the variation of ? values was high for a C4 species, and the ? values were positively correlated with salinity in both years of study. Of the possible explanations for this patter, the ? results are consistent with the notion that salinity induces an increase in the bundle sheath leakiness of these C4 plants. Published in Western North American Naturalist, volume 55, issue 2, on pages 135 - 41, in 1995.
