The concentration and distribution of porewater salts, pH and the amount of phosphorus in the substrate are highly dependent on the flooding frequency. The latter depends on the tidal and estuarine dynamics in combination with the basin topography. The capacity of local plant species to capture phosphorus from the environment under different environmental settings will be evaluated. The practical experiments presented here stress the quantification of these factors and their interpretation under an integrated ecohydrological approach.
