Tidal marshes store large amounts of organic carbon in their soils. Field data quantifying soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks provide an important resource for researchers, natural resource managers, and policy-makers working towards the protection, restoration, and valuation of these ecosystems. We collated a global dataset of tidal marsh soil organic carbon (MarSOC) from 99 studies that includes location, soil depth, site name, dry bulk density, SOC, and/or soil organic matter (SOM).

- Salinity is a significant barrier to plant growth, affecting regions with high salt exposure, and the study focuses on a specific plant species known for its tolerance to these conditions.
- A pot experiment was designed to explore how varying levels of soil and water salinity affect plant growth, comparing conditions with and without salt leaching.
- Results showed that high salinity dramatically hindered plant growth and caused more issues with sodium accumulation under no salt leaching compared to leaching, highlighting the importance of water management in saline environments.
