Introduced Plants Species
The San Francisco Estuary
Institute received funding in 1997 from Category III
of CALFED to assess
priorities for the control of introduced tidal marsh plants
in the San Francisco Estuary. Several control efforts are
underway, planned, or being considered for a variety of
introduced plant species, involving different levels of
cost, potential for success, and risk of harmful side effects.
Because achieving successful control of introduced plants
that are distributed across public and private lands will
require a regional effort, we endeavored
- to determine which are the most important species to
control and
- to identify their current and potential locations. Additionally,
we assessed research needs to address introduced marsh
plant issues. This report details the steps taken and
results achieved towards these goals for the management
of introduced tidal marsh plants in the Estuary.
