The effect of water-level on utilization of short-grass marsh

Description

The utilization of an area as a feeding ground is dependent on a number of factors. The type and amount of food is an obvious limiting factor on both the number of species and number of each species, likely to be present. Various physical factors temperature, moisture, soil type, ect. will effect the type and amount of food available. In a marsh area water becomes an important factor. A change in the water level will change the nature of the marsh which will effect the utilization of the marsh. If the water level is lowered, it will restrict the feeding areas for those species which require wet or muddy areas for feeding. In observing a short grass marsh area, it was seen that a direct relationship exists between moisture and habitat utilization.
