This book was released on 1978 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bird use of dredged material islands in five areas of Florida was studied. The use of these islands by birds, particularly by colonial nesting sea and wading birds, was documented with two visits to each of 40 selected islands in five study areas in 1977. The islands were used as nesting habitat by 26 species of colonial and 8 species of noncolonial birds. The islands were also used extensively for feeding, loafing, and roosting by these and other species. Various species-habitat interactions and the significance of dredged material islands to colonial nesting sea and wading birds are discussed in detail. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was made to determine succession of vegetation on various aged dredged material islands in Florida. Forty islands in five selected study areas were intensively examined. An extensive literature review was conducted. Vertical aerial photographs and vegetation maps of each island are presented. A total of 141 plant species were found to occur on the islands. In Florida, typical island vegetation occurred through colonization by propagules from water-, wind-, and bird-carried sources. Marsh grasses such as smooth cordgrass preceded establishment by upland species such as Brazilian pepper, Australian pine, sabal palm, and herbaceous and grass cover. Bird use of the islands was directly related to the stage of plant succession, and bird fecal material was found to affect the vegetation both adversely and beneficially depending upon location. Recommendations for management include creation of new islands and enlargement and stabilization of existing eroding islands for bird use. Maintenance of unvegetated sites as critical habitat for terns and black skimmers is also recommended. (Author).
