Native Plant Revegetation Manual for Denali National Park and Preserve
Densmore RV, Vander Meer ME, Dunkle NG. 2000. Native Plant Revegetation Manual for Denali National Park and Preserve. USGS/BRD/ITR-2000-0006. USGS. Anchorage, AK
This manual describes methods to revegetate subarctic sites with native plants. The information is based on 20 years of research and revegetation projects in Denali National Park and Preserve and other Alaskan sites. The manual summarizes information about subarctic ecosystems and discusses using thisinformation to evaluate disturbed sites and plan revegetation projects. Revegetation techniques addressed include promoting natural revegetation, legume and wheatgrass seeding, plant salvage and transplant, bioengineering, container- grown plants, alder seedlings, and willow cuttings. Long-term data for two specific vegetation projects and for each of the 46 native plant species that have been tested or used for revegetation are presented.
