| dc.description.abstract | This article reports on the feasibility of establishing a marsh on dredge material in Galveston Bay. Sprigs of two species of marsh grass were planted 20 inches apart between high and low water mark in an area surrounded by a sandbag dike to protect the plants from wave and tide erosion. Marshhay cord grass did not do well except at upper elevations while smooth cord grass grew well intertidally. Seeding of both species was successful only at elevations at or above mean high water, where dense stands of both species established and produced seed during the first growing season. Fertilization was of limited value. Smooth cord grass also spread by runners. Population studies of fish and large invertebrates were carried out | en_US |
