1 Parting the Typha Sea: Using Herbicide and Fire to Restore the River of Grass LeRoy Rodgers, SFWMD
2 The Everglades Phosphorus Problem Increased phosphorus leads to cattail dominance
3 Cattail Encroachment Degrades Habitat Current Conditions Desired Conditions Dense cattail stands Low species diversity Poor wading bird foraging habitat Mosaic of sawgrass ridge and open water sloughs Increased habitat complexity Increased species diversity Increased wildlife habitat
4 Everglades Landscape Patterning Ridge-slough Mosaic Cattail dominated
5 Cattail Habitat Improvement Project CHIP Creating open habitat with herbicides and fire Open & Control Pair Timeline May 2006 glyphosate (7.5 pts/ac AquaNeat ) July 2006 burn Aug 2006 glyphosate + imazapyr (7.5 pts/ac AquaNeat + 1 qt/ac Habitat ) Mar 2007 glyphosate + imazapyr Nov 2007 glyphosate + imazapyr 5
6 Succession of an Ecosystem April 2006 May 2010 Herbicide + Burn treatments: created open water habitat with submerged aquatic vegetation increased productivity reduced phosphorus levels increased wading bird utilization
7 Oxygen concentration (mg/l) Oxygen concentration (mg/l) Increased Dissolved Oxygen Enriched control 8 6 Algae and submerged vegetation /7 08/8 08/9 08/10 08/11 08/12 Date Enriched open 0 08/7 08/8 08/9 08/10 08/11 08/12 Date 7
8 Greater Wading bird usage (WY2010 dry season) Mean birds per week ± S.D. (all species pooled) Enriched Control Enriched Open 0.5 ± ± 36 Total # birds 26 2,024 Total # species 4 9 Number of weeks 1 bird observed
9 Challenges Glyphosate and imazapyr provided good, but nonselective control of cattail and other emergent vegetation. Multiple treatments required Did not achieve sawgrass ridge/slough landscape
10 Imazamox EPA registration 2008 Belongs to the imidazolinone class of pesticides. Includes imazapic, imazapyr, imazaquin Mode of action: inhibits acetohydroxyacid synthesis (ALS inhibitor) Uptake primarily through foliage, but some soil activity Imidazolinone herbicides generally exhibit very little toxicity to mammals, birds, fish, or insects.
11 Clearcast for Cattail Control Recommended rate for cattail control oz/acre BASF reported excellent control at 32 fl oz/acre Recommended rates for some plants closely related to desired non-target Everglades species oz/acre e.g. smartweeds, floating heart, bulrushes, grasses Can imazamox provide selective control of cattail in Everglades marsh?
12 Initial Everglades Trials Control Clearcast 32 oz/ac Aerial Application
13 Percent change in cover Clearcast Treatments 12 MAT Cattail Sawgrass oz/ac 8 oz/ac 16 oz/ac 32 oz/ac 0 oz/ac 8 oz/ac 16 oz/ac 32 oz/ac Excellent cattail control at 32 oz/ac; moderate control at 16 oz/ac Minimal to no damage to sawgrass and other dominant species in all treatments 32 oz/ac
14 Active Marsh Improvement Project AMI New trial conducted in dense cattail areas in Water Conservation Area 2A Evaluated 32 oz/ac and 24 oz/ac
15 Cattail Control 12, 21, and 24 MAT

17 AMI Bottom Line While still promising, results suggest that dense cattail on enriched sites requires no less than 32 oz/ac with follow up treatments More biomass to control, especially rhizomes Interference from dense thatch likely limits uptake
18 Back to CHIP Switched to imazamox in 2011 Cattail is very well controlled (for three years) Habitat succeeding to productive emergent marsh with spikerush (Eleocharis spp.) and other species. Spikerush and other emergent species now colonizing CHIP plots
19 Post Imazamox Treatment 2015
20 New Imazamox Trials in WCA 2A
21 Next Steps: Active Marsh Improvement III (AMI 3) Assessing effect of pre-herbicide burning H 1 removing dense thatch improves herbicide uptake H 2 burning stimulates dormant rhizome meristematic tissue thereby improving herbicide efficacy Evaluate ground-based imazamox treatments for mop up cattail control Develop resistance management strategy
