Abstract

This study has resulted in the collection of a unique dataset of seasonal macrophyte growth over a six year period, encompassing extreme levels of flow both high and low. Although not analysed the results of the surveys are presented in this report. The data collected would enable subsequent investigation of the impact of weed cuts on the composition, density, cover and recovery time of these species and the relationship between macrophyte growth, hydraulic roughness, flow regimes and sediment transport/deposition.
