Description
Compared nekton densities among 5 natural and 10 created salt marsh sites to test whether these marsh types were functionally equivalent. Created marshes ranged from 3-yrs to 15-yrs old. Natural and created marshes did not differ in species richness. Marsh elevation and tidal flooding are a key characteristic affecting use by nekton and should be considered in marsh construction projects.
