Sandflat Ecology

Sandflat Ecology is an academic framework that systematically investigates the biotic and abiotic interactions within sand-dominated tidal flat ecosystems, distinguishing it from other coastal ecological studies by its focused analysis of sediment dynamics, zonation patterns, and organism adaptations specific to unvegetated sandy substrates.
