Effects of Weirs on Aquatic Vegetation Along the Louisiana Coast

The effects of weirs on aquatic vegetation were investigated at 3 separate areas along the Louisiana coast. In each area, aquatic vegetation was more abundant in ponds affected by weirs than in adjacent control ponds. Comparisons were also made among areas, between pond sizes, and within individual ponds relative to abundance and distribution of aquatic plants.
