The role of changing climate in driving the shift from perennial grasses to annual succulents in a Mediterranean saltmarsh

Changing climate threatens the structure and function of saltmarshes, which are often severely degraded by other human perturbations. Along the Mediterranean coastline, increasing temperature and decreasing rainfall have been hypothesised to trigger habitat shifts from perennial grasses to annual su...
