This study explores shifts in Competitor, Stress-tolerator, Ruderal (CSR) strategies among salt marsh halophytes in response to sea-level rise, focusing on changes in canopy height as a key ecological parameter. By applying the CSR model across varying canopy heights, we assessed how plant communities reorganize their life strategies under increased inundation. In Salicornia europaea, Suaeda glauca, Suaeda maritima, these transitions—R/CR→R, CR→R, and CR→R—reflect the erosion of competitive capacity and the growing dominance of ruderal strategies under stress from rising sea levels. The decline in competitive strategies underscores the fragility of these habitats, emphasizing the importance of ecosystem conservation.
