Plant traits – a tool for restoration?

Creator:: Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-, Wilson, Mark V., Roberts, Rachel, Dunwiddie, Peter W., Stanley, Amanda, and Kaye, Thomas N.
Abstract:: Question: Most results of restoration efforts are species-specific and/or site-specific and therefore are not general enough to be easily applied to other species and other sites. Our research addresses the issue of species-specific results by investigating the feasibility of using plant traits instead of taxonomic species to characterize species responses...

West Eugene Native Wetland Restoration Research Project: Seed Dormancy, Germination, and Establishment

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V., Ingersoll, Cheryl A., and Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-
Abstract:: Seed size, abundance, viability, dormancy, and germination requirements strongly influence plant establishment and therefore are important considerations in restoration of native vegetation. These characteristics provide criteria for selection of suitable species, development of collection and pretreatment methods, and determination of seeding densities. The first set of objectives of this study...

Demography and Reproduction of Erigeron decumbens var. decumbens, 1993-1994 Field Studies

Creator:: Ingersoll, Cheryl A., Finley, Karen K., and Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-
Abstract:: Erigeron decumbens var. decumbens, the Willamette Daisy, is endemic to the Willamette Valley of Oregon. This taxon is a Category 1 Candidate for listing under the federal Endangered Species Act (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1990) and is listed as Endangered under Oregon state law. Herbarium records indicate that E....

Final report: Predicting field establishment rates from standardized plant traits - Year two of: Restoring prairies: A synthesis of studies on vegetation and invasive species in support of effective management

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V., Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-, and Roberts, Rachel E.
Abstract:: Willamette Valley wetland prairies are some of the most endangered ecosystems in the United States, and provide habitat for many federally listed species (Wilson et al. 1993, Noss et al. 1995, USFWS 2000, Schultz et al. 2003). A rigorous program of ecosystem restoration can protect and enhance wetland plants, animals,...

Progress report II: Restoring prairies: A synthesis of studies on vegetation and invasive species in support of effective management (Year two)

Creator:: Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950- and Wilson, Mark V.
Abstract:: Willamette Valley wetland and upland prairies are some of the most endangered ecosystems in the United States, and provide habitat for many federally listed species. Because these are dynamic systems, subject to ecological succession and invasion by aggressive non-native species, prairies require active management to maintain management goals. This is...

Fire effects on wetland prairie species : final report

Creator:: Clark, Deborah L., Wilson, Mark V., and Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-
Abstract:: Wetland prairies of the Willamette Valley, considered among the rarest of Oregon’s ecosystems, are threatened by invasion of woody species and non-native species. Because of its historical importance, fire is a top choice of managers for preventing the encroachment of woody species. However, the effects of prescribed burning on present...

Traits, neighbors, and species performance in prairie restoration

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V., Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-, and Roberts, R. E.
Abstract:: Questions: Are traits related to the performance of plant species in restoration? Are the relationships between traits and performance consistent across the functional groups of annual forbs, perennial forbs, and grasses? Do the relationships between traits and performance depend on neighboring functional groups? Location: A former agricultural field, being restored...

Final report: Restoration of Fender’s blue butterfly and its prairie ecosystem: Management applications of fire to Baskett Slough NWR

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V. and Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-
Abstract:: We tested the recolonization ability of the Fender’s blue butterfly and monitored the vegetation response to a management-scale prescribed fire at the Baskett Slough National Wildlife Refuge, western Oregon. The prescribed fire successfully cut shrub cover in half, but also reduced the size of Festuca roemeri, a dominant native grass....

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V. and Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-
Abstract:: We report results from a field experiment evaluating the effectiveness of mowing, mowing and herbicides, and burning on woody plants, key native and non-native grasses and forbs, and the Fender’s blue butterfly. The goal was to find a technique that controlled woody pest plants without harming native species or promoting...
