Vegetation, substrate and hydrology in floating marshes in the Mississippi river delta plain wetlands, USA
In the 1940s extensive floating marshes (locally called ‘flotant’) were reported and mapped in coastal wetlands of the Mississippi River Delta Plain. These floating marshes included large areas of Panicum hemitom...

The effects of herbivory on vegetation on islands in Atchafalaya Bay, Louisiana
Vegetation establishment proceeded rapidly on islands in Atchafalaya Bay, Louisiana, following subaerial exposure in 1973. By 1980, 11 km2 of land were vegetated, with four primary plant associations dominating t...
