Recognizing and Managing Invasives

The National Park Service and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, in their introduction to Invasive Plants in the Mid-Atlantic region, explain that invasive species and habitat destruction, intensified by global climate change, are running neck-in-neck as the leading causes of environmental despoliation and loss of biological diversity worldwide. Many of the species contained in their guide are found in the Corsica watershed. Preserving remaining intact natural habitats, reestablishing native plants, managing overabundant white tailed deer populations and restoring natural hydrologic and other
conditions are some steps we can take to mend degraded lands. The guide contains photos of a number of commonly found invasive species and includes ways to manage and hopefully, avoid their spread. See https://www.invasive.org/eastern/midatlantic/
