| Title: | Borrichia removal experiment at Dean Creek marsh on Sapelo Island, Georgia between 1995 and 2001 | ||
| Abstract: | To examine the effect of Borrichia on Batis and Sarcocornia sp., I completely clipped all vegetation from six 0.5 x 0.5 m quadrats in a mixed stand of the three species at the Dean Creek marsh in June 1995. Six additional plots were left unmanipulated as controls. Removal and control plots were fully interspersed. I clipped Borrichia from the removal plots every 6 months but allowed other plant species to re-colonize. | ||
