“…In heavy soils the excavation is much harder and only small turves can be transported because of high specific weight of the soil. In most cases, high specific survival rates were reported: 54-90% of species were successfully survived the transfer (Bullock 1998;Vécrin and Muller 2003). But in some cases high mortality of the transferred plants was reported.…”

“…creating 35 hectares of Mediterranean temporary wetlands in our site). Indeed, unlike terrestrial ecosystems where soil transfer involves the destruction of the donor ecosystem (Jaunatre et al, 2012;Vécrin and Muller, 2003) and cannot be a substitute for in situ conservation (McLean, 2003), the soil transfer technique used in our study appears a non-destructive method at the scale of the donor wetlands. Because the seed bank of the first few centimeters of the soil in temporary wetlands is rich in seed number and species diversity (Bonis and Grillas, 2002), only 8 m 2 of soil were collected in our case at the donor sites (corresponding approximately to less 0.001% of the total area of the donor sites) and were spread for half a day over 32 m 2 (corresponding to 200 L of soil) in the mesocosms.…”
