摘要

A 3.2-ha diked dredged material disposal site was constructed in 1975 on Nott Island in the Connecticut River, 11 km upriver from Long Island Sound. It was filled with sandy dredged material, top-dressed with finer sediments, and experimentally treated and planted with legumes and grasses. Monitoring of the planted vegetation and wildlife response to the vegetation during the 1977 growing season is reported. (Author)
