Rhizedra lutosa (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), native to Europe, was first found in North America in 1988 in southern New Jersey. The insect is reported to cause serious damage to Phragmites australis in the Netherlands, but it now appears t[...]

For a common, widespread, and familiar plant, Phragmites australis engenders an enormous level of scientific controversy and emotional conflict. In parts of the world, Phragmites is an important component of healthy ecosystems and an integral (i[...]

Much effort has been directed recently at restoring marshes, by the removal of the invasive common reed, Phragmites australis, yet it is not clear how fish and invertebrates have responded either to the invasion of Phragmites or to marsh restora[...]

Quantifying the relative value of Phragmites australis and Spartina alterniflora habitat is important to evaluate the benefits and risks of different attempts to address Phragmites expansion on the U.S. eastern seaboard. Two contrasting approach[...]

We examined the 5-yr (1996-2000) response of subtidal marsh creek fishes (2,793 trawls, 47 species, 30,719 fish) to a large marsh restoration project in the upper Delaware Bay, and found that the salinity gradient covaried along with marsh surfa[...]

The increasing abundance of Phragmites australis in many North American. coastal and inland wetlands is of great concern to many scientists and land managers. While some considered the species native, others considered it an introduced invasive [...]

We examined fish assemblages in tidal salt marsh creeks in Delaware Bay in order to evaluate their response to treatment for Phragmites removal following initial treatment in 1996. In Alloway Creek, a tributary to Delaware Bay, reference creeks [...]

Colonial nesting of long-legged wading birds (Ciconiiformes) in the coastal northeastern U.S. is limited primarily to islands, which provide isolated habitats that are relatively free of ground predators. Estuarine wetlands in this heavily devel[...]

Negative connotations of invasive plants worldwide have implicated them as the bearers of unfavorable ecosystem change. We contrasted 5-yr-old and 20-yr-old Phragmites populations with pre-invasion areas occupied by Typha spp. and Panicum virgat[...]

Since 1965 large areas of lower Connecticut River tidelands have been converted from high diversity brackish meadow and Typha angustifolia marsh to near monocultures of Phragmites australis. This study addresses the impact of Phragmites invasion[...]

Several recent studies indicate that the replacement of extant species with Phragmites australis can alter the size of nitrogen (N) pools and fluxes within tidal marshes. Some common effects of P. australis expansion are increased standing stock[...]

This study investigates the influence of Phragmites australis (common reed) invasion on the habitat of the resident marsh fish, Fundulus heteroclitus (mummichog) in the Hackensack Meadowlands, New Jersey. These abundant fish play an important ro[...]

The use of constructed wetlands to replace natural wetlands has become a widespread management tool. Because of the inherent disturbed nature of these sites, constructed wetlands are susceptible to colonization by undesirable plant species. Vege[...]

The invasion of Phragmites australis into tidal marshes formerly dominated by Spartina alterniflora has resulted in considerable interest in the consequences of this invasion for the ecological functions of marsh habitat. We examined the provisi[...]

The rapid spread of Phragmites australis in the coastal marshes of the Northeastern United States has been dramatic and noteworthy in that this native species appears to have gained competitive advantage across a broad range of habitats, from ti[...]

In recent decades, marshes naturally dominated by Spartina spp. have been replaced by Phragmites australis throughout the northeastern United States. We suggest that early in this invasion there was little effect on the fish fauna. As the invasi[...]

Through their physiological effects on ion, oxygen, and carbon balance, respectively, salinity, sulfide, and prolonged flooding combine to constrain the invasion and spread of Phragmites in tidal wetlands. Initial sites of vigorous invasion by s[...]

The extensive spread of Phragmites australis throughout brackish marshes on the East Coast of the United States is a major factor governing management and restoration decisions because it is assumed that biogeochemical functions are altered by t[...]

Over the past century, the distribution and abundance of Phragmites australis (common reed) has dramatically increased in both freshwater and brackish wetlands throughout North America. It has been hypothesized that the increased competitive abi[...]

In spite of its long history, Phragmites australis' (Cav.) Trin ex Stuedel invasion in tidal marshes defies explanation. Initial establishment in these systems is particularly perplexing, because seedlings and rhizome fragments do not perform we[...]

We assess the probability and importance of different spatial distributions of Phragmites australis (Trin Ex Steud) within brackish tidal marshes of the mid-Atlantic United States coast. The comparative impact of Phragmites expansion on the larg[...]
