This book was released on 2019 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invasive Phragmitesaustralis ssp. australis (herein ?Phragmites?) has established and rapidly spread throughout many coastal areas of the Great Lakes. Knownto displace native vegetation communities as it forms large, monotypic stands, Phragmiteshas a bad reputation when it comes tolosses ofbiodiversity and habitat provision for wildlife.However, the extent to which Phragmitesprovides habitat for fish and invertebrates in coastal freshwater wetlands remains relatively unquantified. Thus, this study assessed whether fish assemblages and invertebrate communities in stands of Phragmites differ from those in stands of two native emergent vegetation communities,Typha spp. and Schoenoplectus spp. The findings showed significant differences in habitat variables among the vegetation communities in terms of water depth, macrophyte species richness, stem density and water quality.While abundance of the functional feeding group filterer-collectorswas found to be significantly less in stands of Phragmiteswhen compared to Schoenoplectus, no difference was observed in invertebrate tax a richness among vegetation communities.Lastly, no difference infish assemblage or invertebrate community was detected when using multivariate analyses, implying thatinvasive Phragmitesprovides habitat that appears to be as valuable for fishand invertebrates as other emergent vegetation typesin the St. Clair River Delta. The findings of this study will ultimately benefit the literature on invasive Phragmitesand its role as fish habitat in freshwater wetlands, and aid management agencies in decisions regarding control of the invasive species.Keywords:Phragmites, freshwater fish, fish habitat, Great Lakes, aquatic invertebrates, nMDS, St. Clair River Delta, wetlands, aquatic invasive species.

Download or read book Fire Ecology and Management Past Present and Future of US Forested Ecosystems written by Cathryn H. Greenberg and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume presents original scientific research and knowledge synthesis covering the past, present, and potential future fire ecology of major US forest types, with implications for forest management in a changing climate. The editors and authors highlight broad patterns among ecoregions and forest types, as well as detailed information for individual ecoregions, for fire frequencies and severities, fire effects on tree mortality and regeneration, and levels of fire-dependency by plant and animal communities. The foreword addresses emerging ecological and fire management challenges for forests, in relation to sustainable development goals as highlighted in recent government reports. An introductory chapter highlights patterns of variation in frequencies, severities, scales, and spatial patterns of fire across ecoregions and among forested ecosystems across the US in relation to climate, fuels, topography and soils, ignition sources (lightning or anthropogenic), and vegetation. Separate chapters by respected experts delve into the fire ecology of major forest types within US ecoregions, with a focus on the level of plant and animal fire-dependency, and the role of fire in maintaining forest composition and structure. The regional chapters also include discussion of historic natural (lightning-ignited) and anthropogenic (Native American; settlers) fire regimes, current fire regimes as influenced by recent decades of fire suppression and land use history, and fire management in relation to ecosystem integrity and restoration, wildfire threat, and climate change. The summary chapter combines the major points of each chapter, in a synthesis of US-wide fire ecology and forest management into the future. This book provides current, organized, readily accessible information for the conservation community, land managers, scientists, students and educators, and others interested in how fire behavior and effects on structure and composition differ among ecoregions and forest types, and what that means for forest management today and in the future.
