Transplantation of Typha and the Distribution of Vegetation and Algae in a Reclaimed Estuarine Marsh

Abstract
T. angustifolia L. clones, which were transplanted into a reclaimed estuarine marsh at Camp Smith, Peekskill, New York [USA], during Nov. 1971 and April, May and June 1972, became established and were thriving after 2 yr. May and June were the most successful transplanting periods. The experimental area exhibited spectacular recovery in native flora through natural invasion or buried seed. Floral species in the reclaimed marsh were similar to those of the adjacent marsh.
