Coastal microbial mat diversity along a natural salinity gradient.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Bolhuis Henk, Fillinger Lucas, Stal Lucas J

Abstract excerpt

The North Sea coast of the Dutch barrier island of Schiermonnikoog is covered by microbial mats that initiate a succession of plant communities that eventually results in the development of a densely vegetated salt marsh. The North Sea beach has a natural elevation running from the low water mark to the dunes resulting in gradients of environmental factors perpendicular to the beach. These gradients are due to...
