- W2305668064 abstract "Wetland Vegetations of Chamo and Abaya Lakes in the southern and Fincha’a-Chomen andDabus marshes in western Ethiopia were studied to determine floristic composition,vegetation ecology, plant community types and to identify environmental factors significantlyinfluencing the distribution of plant species and community types. A total of 339 releves werelaid along transects that were set up preferentially across areas where there were rapidchanges in vegetation or marked environmental gradients to collect data on estimate ofpercentage aerial cover of plant species and environmental variables. A total of 302 plantspecies belonging to 194 genera and 72 families were identified. The most dominant familiesin all the sites were Asteraceae, Poaceae, Cyperaceae and Fabaceae. Multivariate dataanalyses were performed using appropriate packages in R version 2.14.0. Vegetation datawere analyzed by agglomerative hierarchical cluster analysis using similarity ratio as aresemblance index and Ward’s linkage method. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA)was used to explore the relationship between the species composition and environmentalvariables. The environmental data to be included in the CCA were determined using stepwisebackward and forward selection of variables by ANOVA test. Statistical measurementregarding species diversity, richness and evenness of the plant community types was carriedout by using Shannon-Wiener (1949) diversity indices. Sample-based rarefaction curves werecomputed in the program EstimateS (Colwell, 2005) to estimate and compare speciesrichness across sites of different sizes. Comparison of the floristic diversity of the wetlandsshowed that Dabus marsh had the highest alpha diversity. From all the study sites, relativelythe highest number of plant community types was recorded from wetlands of Lake Abayaduring both seasons. The most important factors influencing the plant species compositionand pattern of wetland plant communities were drainage, water depth, land use, slope,altitude and hydrogeomorphology (in wetlands of Lake Abaya) and water depth, disturbanceand hydrogeomorphology (in wetlands of Lake Chamo). All of the measured factors hadsignificant role in Dabus and Fincha’a-Chomen marshes. Therefore, these should be considered in future management and protection under the circumstance of climate changeand human activities." @default.
