Salix fragilis
|
Habitat Alteration
|
Anecdotal
|
N/A
|
Environmental damage from Salix fragilis invasion includes changes to stream hydrology, higher erosion and sedimentation rates, and flooding patterns. They may also use more water than indigenous plant species and cause changes to nutrient cycling, water temperature, energy fluxes, and general water quality may also result.
