- Abstract
Within this context, Kimball et al. ([19]) outline recent technological advances that will aid the study of tidal marsh systems, and how the resultant data streams may be integrated and exploited to ask "big questions" about the structure and function of marsh systems, through the lens of services in support of exploited species. Tidal salt marshes are an essential part of coastal seascapes. Thus, the symposium "Concepts and Controversies in Tidal Marsh Ecology Revisited" was conceived as an intergenerational meeting of tidal marsh ecologists examining marsh support of fisheries, and was held as part of the 2019 25th Biennial Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation (CERF) meeting in Alabama (Fig. Similarly, Haines ([13]) revised the early salt marsh paradigm to include not only in situ processes, but the export of marsh production to the greater estuary and coastal environs through the flow of organic matter and nutrients and organisms, the latter described as "trophic relays" (Kneib [20]).
