Consequences of propagule dispersal and river fragmentation for riparian plant community diversity and turnover
The spatial distribution and temporal availability of propagules fundamentally constrain plant community development. This study experimentally tested several hypotheses about the relative roles of wind and water dispersal in colonization and development of riparian communities along rivers. Through controlling the source of propagules (dispersed by wind, water, or both) reaching newly created,...
متن کاملPlant-plant interactions, environmental gradients and plant diversity: a global synthesis of community-level studies.
Previous syntheses on the effects of environmental conditions on the outcome of plant-plant interactions summarize results from pairwise studies. However, the upscaling to the community-level of such studies is problematic because of the existence of multiple species assemblages and species-specific responses to both the environmental conditions and the presence of neighbors. We conducted the f...
متن کاملMultiscale Patterns of Riparian Plant Diversity and Implications for Restoration
Planning riparian restoration to resemble historic reference conditions requires an understanding of both local and regional patterns of plant species diversity. Thus, understanding species distributions at multiple spatial scales is essential to improve restoration planting success, to enhance long-term ecosystem functioning, and to match restoration planting designs with historic biogeographi...
متن کاملLateral variability of overbank sedimentation on a Devon flood plain
Deployment of sediment traps over a 12-month period has enabled investigation of the lateral variability of overbank deposition rates and particle size composition of deposited sediment across a frequently inundated flood plain section of the River Culm, southeast Devon, UK. Although a general exponential decrease in deposition rate and grain size with distance from the channel occurs, signific...
