Detritus in a salt marsh refers to the organic matter that results from the decomposition of plant material, such as dead grasses and other vegetation. This nutrient-rich material provides essential food for a variety of organisms, including microorganisms and detritivores, which play a crucial role in the marsh's ecosystem. Detritus contributes to the nutrient cycling and supports higher trophic levels, making it vital for the health and productivity of salt marsh habitats.

Well salt. And minerals and it would have something in it to make the plants grow.
If scientists are studying egrets, herons, marsh crabs, and cordgrass in a salt marsh but not the water or rocks, they are focusing on the organismal level of organization. This level examines individual species and their interactions within the ecosystem without considering the abiotic components like water and rocks. Essentially, they are looking at the living organisms and their relationships in that specific habitat.

Salt marsh snails are preyed upon by a variety of animals, including birds such as herons and shorebirds, as well as crabs and other invertebrates. Additionally, fish, raccoons, and some mammals may also feed on salt marsh snails.
Generally, no. Green algae and cyanobactieria (formerly known as blue green algae) are autotrophs, and are photosynthetic. Detritus is organic material that has been degraded physically or chemically. Detritivores are animals that consume detritus. A good example of a detritivore is a shrimp in a salt marsh. Cordgrass breaks down into detritus, and many species of shrimp consume that material.

The salt marsh can leak into the ocean, causing the ocean to be saltier. OR The marshes are no where near the ocean, so they can't affect it at all.
