Description: This dataset represents Intertidal Saltmarsh Habitat in Abu Dhabi derived through Satellite Image processing. Status: Critical Habitat within Abu Dhabi emirate. Location: This habitat type is distributed east to west along the coast and islands from Khalifa Port to the Saudi Arabia border, within Abu Dhabi emirate. There is a higher concentration of this habitat type around the islands to the east and west of Abu Dhabi Island. Description: This habitat consists of intertidal areas dominated by emergent halophytic herbaceous vegetation and shrubs. The grasses, herbs and dwarf shrubs that are the flora species associated with this habitat type coexist with mangroves, with salt marshes typically occurring at slightly higher elevations than mangroves. Salt-tolerant chenopods are predominant near the shoreline as are mat-forming grasses and dwarf shrubs such as Limonium axillare. Organisms include crabs; gastropods; and polychaetes. Saltmarsh is considered a “Blue Carbon” habitat type because it is a coastal and marine habitat that is able to sequester and store carbon.
