Article Synopsis
- The study examined how soil salinity, plant richness, and diversity are influenced by habitat type, site, and distance from the seashore in north-western Sardinia.
- Soil salinity levels were notably higher in rocky habitats compared to sandy ones, and vegetation diversity varied, with rocky sites hosting 21 species and sandy sites 30 species per transect.
- The findings indicate that coastal gradients of soil salinity exist in the Mediterranean, impacting vascular plant richness and diversity based on distance from the sea, while the overall site effect was minimal.
