Open Marsh Water Management in Delaware: 1979-2007
Open marsh water management (OMWM) is a selective ponding-and-ditching technique for saltmarsh mosquito control that encourages consumption of mosquito larvae by native larvivorous fishes while eliminating or reducing larval rearing habitats. OMWM has been successfully practiced in Delaware since 1979, and after 28 years of use actively continues today. After some refinement of the state’s init...
متن کاملSalt Marsh Tidal Channels
Salt marsh tidal channels are highly sinuous. For this project, field surveys and aerial photographs were used to characterize the planform of tidal channels at China Camp Marsh in the San Francisco Bay, California. To model the planform evolution, we assume that the topographic curvature of the channel centreline is a key element driving meander migration. Extraction of curvature data from a p...
متن کاملA review of current salt marsh management issues in Florida.
For the past decade, salt marsh management in Florida has been a central issue in attempts to reconcile mosquito control and natural resource interests. Progress has been made in trying to maintain effective mosquito control while protecting and enhancing salt marsh resources primarily due to: 1) efforts by the Florida Coordinating Council on Mosquito Control and its Subcommittee on Managed Mar...
متن کاملEffects of Marsh Grass on Diffusivity
The hydrodynamic processes associated with flow through vegetation have many implications for both natural and constructed wetlands. This study examined the effect of marsh grass on mixing rates. A flow visualization study was performed, using a laser light sheet and a video camera to obtain images of a plume of fluorescent dye. The study was performed in a laboratory flume, using wooden dowels...
متن کاملOpen Marsh Water Management A Source Reduction Technique for Mosquito Control
In Delaware, mosquito control is performed through the multi-disciplinary techniques of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) that advocates and practices (in this preferential order): 1) source reduction (elimination of mosquito breeding sites); 2) surveillance (determining mosquito population sizes and in turn directing the need and specific areas for control by insecticides); 3) larviciding (cont...
