Excessive salt concentrations in coastal and wetland soils inhibit plant growth and degrade soil structure. Mitigating this toxicity allows for agricultural productivity and ecosystem restoration in otherwise barren land.

Low survival rates and poor establishment of native species in degraded coastal and wetland ecosystems. Improving recruitment success ensures long-term population persistence and ecosystem stability.

Degraded mining and wetland ecosystems lack the inherent capacity for timely self-revegetation. Accelerating this process prevents further soil erosion and ecological collapse.
