Revegetated riparian areas are dominated by weeds, and lack structural diversity and natural recruitment: lessons for restoration practice

open access: yesRestoration Ecology
Riparian areas can be highly biodiverse and provide critical ecosystem services. However, they are frequently subject to anthropogenic impacts such as land clearing, agricultural use, and urban development. Restoration of riparian areas via revegetation commonly improves the health of waterways and surrounding areas, but vegetation outcomes are rarely ...
