Effects of selected groundwater chemical traits on a salt marsh communityElectrical conductivity, exchangeable sodium ratio and water depth have negative impacts, whereas soil organic matter concentration has a positive impact on Black Sea salt marsh vegetation. The most saline soils were characterized bySalicornia prostratavegetation and associated with exchangeable sodium ratio.Alhagi pseudalhagiandTamarix smrynensispopulations were associated with water depth, whileJuncus littoralis, Ammophila arenariaandE. paraliaswere associated with soil organic matter.Euphorbia paralias, Ammophila arenariaandIris orientaliswere associated with acidity.
