Distribution and growth of the helophyte species Phragmites australis and Scirpus lacustris in water depth gradients in relation to wave exposureAquatic Botany, 48
Water movement has a strong impact on the development and persistence of helophyte stands along large water bodies. The decline ofScirpus andPhragmites stands in the Rhine-Meuse estuary (The Netherlands), due to changed hydrodynamic conditions (reduced tidal action, increased shoreline erosion), illustrates the effects of large-scale hydrological regulation. Hydrodynamic factors partly explain the distribution and composition of helophyte vegetation bordering the open water. A vertical zonation emerges during the stages of dispersal, germination, seedling establishment and adult growth of the plants. Differences between species may result in the occupation of different water-depth zones. Additionally, gradients of wave exposure result in a horizontal zonation along water bodies. Restrictions to helophyte development due to the hydrological regime and wave attack should be taken into account in wetland restoration studies. Water-level management, instead of a strict control of water levels, should be one of the key elements of water management in the future.
