Notes[edit]
- Summarizes the findings of several research groups that monitored The Nature Conservancy's 2012 restoration project at the mouth of Hatt Slough. Groups include WWU, USGS-PCMSC, USGS-WERC, and SRSC.
- The restoration site has less tidal marsh vegetation then predicted, due in part to a large die-back event in 2015 that may have resulted from the interaction of multiple sources of stress, including herbivorous insects, extremely low river flows during spring and summer, and pre-restoration site conditions.
- The plant species predicted to become most common, Schoenoplectus pungens (3-square bulrush), is only present at trace levels, possibly due to soil-related sources of stress.
- Accretion on the restoration site is substantially higher than reference marshes, and currently exceeds rates of sea level rise projected through 2100.
- New tidal channel length substantially exceeds the predicted length. However an underlying hardpan layer may be limiting channel depth and site drainage rates.
- The project objective of increasing sediment and freshwater delivery to the estuary north of the restoration site has not been achieved as of 2017.
- Lessons learned are summarized in 4 categories: Restoration design elements, Design and construction process, Monitoring, and Species, habitat, and ecosystem responses.
