1 Management and Monitoring of Spring Peeper Meadow Julia L. Bohnen University of Minnesota 2003
2 Three Essential Restoration Steps Site Preparation Revegetation Ongoing Management
3 Invasive Species Reed canary grass Phalaris arundinacea Cattail Typha angustifolia T. x glauca Purple loosestrife Lythrum salicaria Buckthorn Rhamnus cathartica Frangula alnus
4 Ongoing Management Restoration details documented: Seeding/planting plan Seeds: species/quantity Plants: species/quantity Labor hours by task Hydrology restored Weeding cattails Spot treatment Treated reed canary grass
5 Ongoing Management Prescribed burn Water level management
6 Monitoring at Spring Peeper Meadow How is the plant community changing over time? How does hydrology affect the plant community? What do bird and amphibian populations tell us about the quality of the restored habitat? How can monitoring inform restoration management?
7 Monitoring Data Data Gathered Regularly: Surface hydrology Photo points Floristic cover
8 Monitoring Data Other Data Gathered: Amphibian Breeding bird Water chemistry Seed bank assay Monarch
9 Surface Hydrology % of Season Inundated Feet above sea level Emergent Marsh 1997 Sedge Meadow Wet Prairie Data derived from weekly staff gauge readings 2008

17 Restoration Monitoring & Adaptive Management Management Monitoring Scouting Scouting Management
18 Long-term Monitoring Outcomes at Spring Peeper Meadow We have a sense of how well we re achieving our restoration goals We can efficiently identify changes in the plant community We can say where management is needed because the data is spatial We have a permanent record of changes in species cover/distribution
19 Thank you!
20 Spring Peeper Meadow Pre-Restoration Historically a stream headwaters wet meadow Wetland drained and farmed for more than 80 years Uplands in a corn-soybean rotation 30 acres acquired in 1995, including 14.6 acre basin Monoculture of reed canary grass in basin Goal: Restore a biologically diverse sedge meadow wetland
21 Site Preparation RoundUp Phalaris arundinacea Post Herbicide Burn off canopy Break tile
