Salinity Gradient Zonation

Salinity Gradient Zonation is a theoretical framework in estuarine ecology that explains the spatial distribution of biological and biogeochemical zones along a continuum of varying salinity, distinguishing itself from other habitat zonation models by emphasizing salinity as the primary environmental gradient structuring community composition and ecosystem function.
