Herbivory by Geese Inhibits Tidal Freshwater Wetland Restoration Success
Experimental results from a multi-year exclosure study (2009–2015) demonstrate strong effects of geese on plant cover and species diversity in an urban, restored tidal freshwater wetland. Access by geese inhibited plant establishment and suppressed plant
