b) the closeness of the marsh to the ocean

c) the depth of the water in the marsh

d) the temperature of the water in the marsh

Answer:

b) the closeness of the marsh to the ocean

Explanation:

Salt marsh is a vast area of low, tidal flat topography situated along coastal regions, beaches etc, and are constantly flooded by the salt water or brackish water leading to accumulation of water on the area due to poor drainage. These areas of the ecosystem consists of plants (grasses and shrubs) and animals which have special adaptations to survive such saline habitat. since there is occasional flooding by the water with high salt content, the closer a marsh is to the water body, the higher the effect of the amount of salt in a salt marsh.
