Revegetation with Carex nebrascensis and Carex utriculata following reconstruction in a NE Oregon meadow stream

Creator:: Quistberg, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Riparian vegetation is an essential component for the maintenance and/or repair of channel stability and function. Sedges within low-gradient riparian systems provide the structure necessary for sediment trapping leading to channel narrowing through bank building processes. Planting success in riparian restoration projects has often failed due to inappropriate species selection,...
