Long-Term Responses of River-Margin Vegetation to Water-Level Regulation
Abstract
The long-term effect of water-level regulation on riparian plant communities was assessed for storage reservoirs and run-of-river impoundments. Soon after the onset of regulation, there were few species and sparse vegetation cover, regardless of whether the new water level intersected former upland or riparian vegetation. In the longer term, an impoverished vegetation was maintained by storage reservoirs, whereas in run-of-river impoundments, some community characteristics deteriorated and others recovered compared to adjacent free-flowing rivers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
