The world’s salty, tidal marshes are hotspots of carbon storage and productivity, building up sediments and plant material so they can stay above sea level. Scientists wondering whether it’s possible for wetlands to keep up with rising sea levels have revealed research that shows how salt marshes along the U.S. coast have responded—by building up elevation more quickly over the last century.

Nothing feels quite like home to me more than the marsh creeks.

I love you salt marshes. I love you mudflats and salt pannes, and all the shorebirds that probe for invertebrates beneath your surface, leaving tracks behind. I love you anoxic sulfur-metabolizing bacteria. I love you Spartina patens, and a thundering dark sky against your windswept plain. I love you fish nursery habitat and wave energy absorber. I love you saltmarsh sparrows, even as you lose a race against time, and I am grateful to have looked into your eyes and seen unrelenting resilience there, confident you won’t go down without a fight. I love you mummichogs, pushing the limits of salt tolerance. I love you Salicornia, like neon pink Christmas trees. I love you mosquito ditch lines, visible reminders etched into your skin of how we have mistreated you and must do better. I love you, sense of serenity standing alone in your rustling grasses as the tide comes in, for a moment imagining the world as it once was, when you covered the whole coast and kept both land and sea bountiful and safe from harm. I love you, enough to work to restore your honor and dignity. I love you, I love you, I love you, salt marsh.

#wetlands #nature #salt marshes #salt marsh #what we tagging these things as my friends #cause this could be a lot longer and i can do one for every type of wetland just watch #i have many feelings about salt marshes that cannot be encapsulated in a tungle text post #having worked in them for multiple jobs now.#i do get a gnawing feeling that makes me tear up a little when i think about these precious places we've mutilated so badly #mine #anyway dont mind my 3am feelings just go out and do something to help a salt marsh if you can #support conservation biologists like me who dedicate their lives to uphill battles #we have to teach the world or there will be nothing left to teach about.
