Abstract: | The study shows that protecting the integrity of white cedar wetlands requires careful planning to reduce suburban influences. Runoff must be diverted away from the cedar swamp and a buffer area maintained. The health of the Sphagnum in a particular swamp can potentially be used as an indicator of the future viability of the stand of white cedar. |
