Temporary wetland restoration after rice cultivation: is soil transfer required for aquatic plant colonization?

Abstract: Key-words:former ricefield, restoration, spontaneous colonization, soil transfer, temporary wetland Mediterranean temporary wetlands have considerably declined in recent decades. Today, opportunities arise for the restoration of these wetlands due to land-use changes, such as the abandonment of cultivation. One critical question is whether communities, such as those observed in natural temporary wetlands, can develop alone or if active restoration should be implemented. In a series of experimental mesocosms, w… Show more

“…To date, agri-environmental schemes (AES) have met limited success with local farmers [57,82]. Recently, there have been initiatives for restoring natural habitats in some protected areas of the Camargue including the restoration of marshes and grasslands on abandoned rice fields and salt pans [83,84]. …”

“…24 Besides these challenges, several studies have reported that soil transfer provides good restoration results. [23][24][25] In conclusion, previous studies have shown that ecological restoration in abandoned agricultural fields of renosterveld is producing mixed results. One can generally conclude that it is on a slow recovery trajectory.…”

“…Alternatively, in the deepest ponds where B. maritimus does not develop, maintaining some patches of J. maritimus or else of J. acutus (targeting the dead shoots of both species) at the edge of L. macrostigma ponds can also facilitate breeding. Finally, if some habitat is to be restored or created for L. macrostigma conservation (Lambret 2011(Lambret , 2013 ecological engineering should take into account these plant substrate preferences, especially if sowing seeds (Muller et al 2013).…”
