Community Structure - 62-345.500(6)(c), FAC 1. Vegetation and Structural Habitat VI. Plant condition Guidance: The overall condition of the plant community can be an indication of disturbance and can be evaluated by observing dead or dying vegetation, chlorotic (yellowing or bleaching) or spindly growth, and damage caused by insects. Often herbaceous vegetation and tree seedlings will exhibit chronic conditions before more mature vegetation. Careful attention should be given to seasonality effects on plant communities. Dead cypress trees in a wetland in Polk County. Death probably due to water discharge from chicken farm. (KCR) Impounded wetland near Bristol in Liberty County, used for storm water storage prior to discharge into Apalachicola River. (PJ)
Community Structure - 62-345.500(6)(c), FAC 1. Vegetation and Structural Habitat VII. Land management practices Guidance: This attribute includes observations of land management practices in and around the wetland. Mowing, grazing, fire suppression and water control features (furrows or ditches), as well as logging operations can affect the condition of the plant community. Is there evidence of the management practices that will affect the plant community either in a positive (enhancing long term sustainability of the community) or negative manner Wetland in Hendry county surrounded by high intensity pasture showing drainage ditch. (KCR) Age and size distribution in a logged cypress swamp, where only smaller trees have been left. (KCR)
