Abstract

    Chemical, physical, and biological assessments were conducted for 28 seasonal pools and 74 northern white cedar swamps within a range of minimally disturbed (reference) and disturbed conditions. Characterization assessments included measures of aquatic macroinvertebrates, amphibians, algae, vascular plants and bryophytes, soils, birds, and landscape condition.
