Typha x glauca seasonal development and growth rates as a function of Typha x glauca density and litter.

Abstract

The area of the marsh studied in this paper was a 64m-long transect starting in the transitional zone where native plants still dominate and T. x glauca is present in low densities, and ending in an area of dense T. x glauca where it has had more time to establish itself as the dominant species. The purpose of the transect was to set up a density gradient along which growth and development could be tracked.
