Project Background
Recent monitoring of restored and natural wetlands in Minnesota has shown a deterioration of the quality and biological diversity of both restored and natural wetlands. One of the causes of this degradation is the establishment of invasive species populations in many of the wetlands and adjacent upland buffers. The purpose of this project is to develop, implement, and evaluate effective strategies for the management of critical invasive species in degraded and restored wetlands and prairie uplands.
