What role do tides play in the formation of marshes?
Tides help deposit sediments that create marshland.
Tides prevent any sediment deposition due to constant water movement.
Tides cause erosion, removing marshland.
Tides have no impact on marsh formation.
Which of the following best describes how tides influence sediment transport in marshes?
Tides create strong currents that completely wash away all sediments.
Tides allow for cyclic flooding, bringing in nutrients and sediments.
Tides only transport sediments during low water periods.
Tides have a limited effect on sediment transport in marsh areas.
How can the absence of tides impact marsh ecosystems?
It increases sediment deposition, leading to more marsh area.
It reduces nutrient input, potentially harming marsh ecology.
It has no impact on marsh ecosystems.
It leads to higher water levels and flooding of marshes.
