Maritimes salt marsh vegetation study. Anonymous
Material type:
TextPublication details: Nova Scotia : 1977Online resources: Abstract: The division of the region into distinct plant communities presents many problems. The two most important factors of local importance in determining the types of vegetation are, the presence or absence of salt and the degree of drainage. Ganong (1903) divided the region into three main ecological divisions which he called: I - The Halophytic Division or Wild Salt Marsh Formation II - The Mesophytic Division or Reclaimed Salt Marsh III - The Hydrophytic Division or Wet Marsh Formation These formations were further subdivided into associations. However, for the purpose of this study, certain changes have been made. Ganong's first two divisions are used but the third has been broken up into three parts, all of which have been given equal status with the first two. The primary concern has been to arrange the habitat in such a manner that direct comparison can be made from the point of view of waterfowl production.
