Goal
Technique: Planting saltmarsh (seeds, seedlings or sods) Salt marshes of 4 species were planted on plots (2 x 2 m2). Macroalgal mats that rafted onto the plots and vascular plant recruits were removed biweekly. A fence was installed to prevent herbivory by rabbits. Spatial extent 220 ha as reported. Reported project duration 0,6 year(s). Average survival 91,0% as reported.

A variable shows "pending" instead of a contribution when no domain area has been set for it yet — the share of the world a project touched cannot be computed without one. The health percentages are accurate regardless.
