Salt marshes in Northern Germany at sunset

29 views Like this 21

Salt marshes are placed in the transition zone between sea and land. They are naturally open grasslands with habitat-specific plants and can be rich in flowers, specialised plants and generalists adapted to disturbed regimes, or they can be dominated by a few grass species. Overall, diversity increases from the regularly flooded pioneer zone to the rarely submerged upper salt marsh belt.
