(Phalaris arundinacea L.), and Native Plants in Wisconsin Wet Meadows
1 Corresponding author: [email protected]; (608) 238-4673; fax: (608) 262-7509 ABSTRACT: Twelve wet meadows in Dane County, Wisconsin showed vegetation patterns that correlate with hydrologic disturbance and presence of a clonal invasive grass, Phalaris arundinacea L., at two scales, 4500-m2 (0.45 ha) “sites” and 1-m2 plots. Sites with indicators of hydrologic disturbance had lower species rich...
متن کاملEvaluating riparian vegetation in semi - arid Mediterranean watercourses in the south - eastern Iberian Peninsula
Riparian vegetation is vulnerable to human impact worldwide, and this is especially so in arid areas, yet there have been few quantitative studies and this is especially so in Spain. The state of the riparian vegetation along three major rivers and seasonal watercourses of southeastern Spain was evaluated during 1992–93, using the species composition and community structure in watercourses of d...
متن کاملInvestigating riparian margins for vegetation patterns and plant-environment relationships in northeast Scotland.
Buffer strips alongside watercourses are a widely accepted method of reducing nutrient and sediment run-off from agricultural land thereby improving water quality. Little attention, however, has been paid to the ecological status of these areas despite the fact that riparian habitats in good condition can provide multiple benefits. We investigated vegetation patterns and plant-environment relat...
متن کاملProspects for Disrupting Rhizome Apical Dominance Prior to Chemical Treatment of Phalaris arundinacea
Reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) is a widely distributed invasive species that dominates many natural areas and restoration sites. Cost-effective suppression and restoration strategies need to be developed for plant communities affected by this species. Pretreatments designed to disrupt rhizome apical dominance may augment herbicide performance by making reed canarygrass rhizomes more su...
