The relative rates of vertical marsh accretion and submergence determine the long-term stability of Louisiana coastal marshes. Coastal marshes are highly susceptible to submergence associated with a rise in relative sea level (Penland and Ramsey, 1989). Louisiana coastal marshes are undergoing rapid subsidence and currently experiencing rapid increases in the water level. Research conducted over the past quarter century in coastal Louisiana has shown that marsh accretion at many... [Pg.670]

Stability of iron sulfides in lake sediments has not been thoroughly examined. Pyrite undergoes dynamic seasonal oxidation in salt marshes and coastal marine sediments (142, 184, 191-195). Pyrite oxidation is mediated... [Pg.343]
