“…climate change impacts | ecohydrology | ecology | habitat vulnerability A s the interest surrounding wetlands and their fate has grown throughout the last decades, the impact of the increasing anthropogenic and climatic changes on their delicate ecosystem, and in particular on their vegetation dynamics, has been the subject of numerous studies (1)(2)(3)(4)(5). It was shown that the spatial organization of vegetation often arises from the interplay between local endogenous dynamics and global exogenous forces (6)(7)(8)(9).…”

“…Although mean water depth is often used to describe plant species or community hydrology (Wood and Tanner 1990;Ross et al 2003;Childers et al 2006), the mean water depth variable in our study performed relatively poorly in predicting vegetation class, even when calculated as the mean of wet events only. Thus, although mean water depth provides a description of one aspect of community hydrology, it is not the most suitable hydrologic indicator for plant community distribution.…”

“…Differentiation of communities based on hydrological variables is therefore not necessarily highly predictable from one region to the next, i.e., the response of vegetation to particular hydrologic regimes cannot be applied globally to predict plant communities in other regions of the same wetland landscape. Similarly, Ross et al (2003) found large differences in plant community hydrology among regions in Everglades National Park, and Givinish et al (2008) found differences in hydrology of the same communities among northern and southern WCA 3A and WCA 3B. These results provide a cautionary tale for restoration performance measures based solely on hydrology, as they suggest that the hydrologic target for a specific outcome may change across a landscape, depending on other biotic and abiotic factors.…”
