International audience. Coastal wetlands are among the most diverse and productive ecosystems on earth (Hobohm et al., 2021). Situated at the interface between land and open sea (Janas et al., 2019), coastal areas are composed of a complex mosaic of biotopes concentrated across restricted spatial scales, and shelter a large diversity of species and habitats (Janas et al., 2019; Maynard & Wilcox, 1997). In addition to their rich biodiversity (Maynard & Wilcox, 1997), coastal wetlands also provide ecosystem services with key role in oxygen and nutrient fluxes and primary production (Janas et al., 2019). However, coastal wetlands are particularly vulnerable to ongoing global
