The past 10 years in particular have seen a sustained research effort into this previously poorly understood and neglected resource. In 10 chapters contributed by experts in each discipline, the book outlines what is known of the biogeography and geomorphology of Australian saltmarshes, their fish and invertebrate ecology, the use of Australian saltmarshes by birds and insectivorous bats, and the particular challenges of management, including the control of mosquito pests, and the issue of sea-level rise. It provides a powerful argument that coastal saltmarsh is a unique and critical habitat vulnerable to the combined impacts of coastal development and sea-level rise."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aSalt marsh ecology$zAustralia 606 $aSalt marshes$zAustralia 606 $aCoastal zone management$zAustralia 615 0$aSalt marsh ecology 615 0$aSalt marshes 615 0$aCoastal zone management 676 $a577.690994 701 $aSaintilan$b Neil$01804166 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964020003321 996 $aAustralian saltmarsh ecology$94352066 997 $aUNINA
