Wildlife Species Associations with Specific Attributes of the Wetland Vegetation Communities of Michigan

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: This report is intended to provide a foundation for eventually developing one module of the Michigan Rapid Assessment Method (MiRAM). Specifically, it provides information on specific attributes of wetlands that can be used, along with information on species ranges, to help predict the assemblage of wildlife species most likely to...

Irrigated Wetlands Of The Colorado Plateau: Information Synthesis And Habitat Evaluation Method

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: Wetlands of the Colorado Plateau that receive water from irrigation can, by their functions, support several societal values. For example, their capacity for removing nitrate and perhaps pesticides from nonpoint source runoff might be considerable. However, relatively little research has been conducted in irrigated wetlands, and their ability to alter...

Survey of the Ecological Condition and Functions of Enhanced, Restored, and Reference Wetlands in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: In a series of Willamette Valley wetlands, standardized protocols were used in 2009 and 2010 to primarily assess (a) vegetation species composition and (b) relative levels of ecosystem services. Of the 60 wetlands visited in one or both years, 34 were classified as riverine and 26 as flats. Of the...
