证据支持Pethick的假设，即盐池可能通过抑制表面植被而在潮汐盐沼上发展（Pethick 1974）。这种盘已经形成在Spartina townsendii（s.l.）沼泽地在澳大利亚由于局部的水涝，米草失败的阴影投下的红树林，和沉积的潮汐残骸。一些平底锅已经发展成池塘洞，其特征是接近垂直或底切的侧面。证据表明，大多数的平底锅和池塘洞形成的早期阶段的沼泽发展将持续整个序列的沼泽成熟。由于在此期间可能会形成更多的盘，盘密度可能会随着沼泽年龄的增加而增加。
Evidence is provided in support of Pethick's hypothesis that salt pans may develop on tidal salt marshes by suppression of surface vegetation (Pethick 1974). Such pans have formed in Spartina townsendii (s.l.) marshland in Australia as a result of localized waterlogging, Spartina failure in the shade cast by mangroves, and the deposition of tidal wrack. Some pans have developed into pond holes, characterized by near vertical or undercut sides. The evidence suggests that the majority of pans and pond holes formed at an early stage of marsh development will persist throughout the sequence of marsh maturation. As additional pans can be expected to form during this period, pan density is likely to increase with marsh age.
