Title: Marsh restoration in the presence of intense herbivory: The role of Justicia lanceolata (Chapm.) small: Journal: Wetlands; Authors: D. W. Llewellyn, and G. P. Shaffer; Date: 1993; Summary: The potential use of Justicia lanceolata in wetland restoration was examined on Arrowhead and Hawk islands in the Atchafalaya Delta, Louisiana.

A subsequent green house study was also ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Wetlands, Fresh marshes, Restoration; View more details about this article
