Vegetation ecology of tidal freshwater swamps of the lower Chesapeake Bay, United States of America

Vegetation ecology of tidal freshwater swamps of the lower Chesapeake Bay, United States of America

Woody and herbaceous vegetation were sampled in 23 tidal swamps along a tidal freshwater tributary of lower Chesapeake Bay. Four vegetative categories were ordinated with Detrended Correspondence Analysis (DECORANA). Species distribution patterns of each strata were compared with respect to edaphic...
