Salt marsh die-off

ID: salt-marsh-die-off

Salt marsh die-off refers to the phenomenon where large areas of salt marsh vegetation, particularly dominant plant species like *Spartina alterniflora* (smooth cordgrass) and *Salicornia* (glasswort), experience significant mortality or decline. This can lead to substantial changes in the ecosystem, affecting not only the plant communities but also the associated wildlife and habitats.
