Spatial modeling and visualization of habitat response to hydrologic restoration in New England salt marshes
… with unexpected or less than optimal results. Restoration planners may be hindered by a lack of synthesized information regarding important biotic and abiotic factors that determine the distribution of dominant salt marsh plants and invasive species. An ecosystem model was developed to better …

Assessment Of The Macroinvertebrate Assemblages From The Mesohabitats Of A Headwater Stream-Wetland Hydrologic Restoration In Eastern Kentucky
… are no exception. In recent decades stream restoration has become a common practice in order to improve habitat degradation resulting from land use practices such as channelization. Despite the large amount of effort and funding stream restoration projects represent, only a small portion …

Hydrologic Regime and Soil Property Interactions in a Forested Peatland
… Peatland function is largely dependent on hydrologic regimes and their influences on the accumulation and properties of peat soil. Therefore, an understanding of soil-hydrology interactions is needed to inform management in drained peatlands, including expansive systems such as the Great …

Variability and Drivers of Forest Communities at the Great Dismal Swamp
… and ditching) have resulted in altered hydrologic regime, homogenized forest communities, and increased peat subsidence. In response, hydrologic restoration and forest management aim to enhance community composition and function. To help inform these efforts, we investigated variability …

Modeling the impacts of pulsed riverine inflows on hydrodynamics and water quality in the Barataria Bay estuary
… in using freshwater diversions in coastal restoration efforts, namely tradeoffs between hydrologic restoration and water quality effects.

Hydrologic Controls on Ecosystem Structure and Function in the Great Dismal Swamp
… altered since colonial times, motivating recent restoration efforts. Community structure and function were hydrologically altered by 19th and 20th century ditches installed to lower water levels and enable early timber harvesting. Contemporary forest communities are comprised of maturing remnants …

Litter Breakdown And Benthic Invertebrate Detritivores From A Hydrologically Restored Stream
… but there is a lack of research on how stream restorations, that aim to restore hydrologic functions, influence litter breakdown. This study compared litter processing rates and macroinvertebrate detritivore assemblages between a hydrologically restored stream (Slabcamp Creek) and an …
