Notes | Many complex factors come into play in salt marsh expansion, contraction and persistence. Sedimentation, uplift, sea level rise, climate, land use, and floods are some of the factors that can influence the physical features of salt marshes. This article examines some of these factors affecting marshes on the Oregon Coast. |
