	note = {{\textquotedblleft}In this thesis, I have addressed three broad questions related to the role of disturbance in the invasion dynamics of dwarf eelgrass, Zostera japonica. My questions were: (1) Is there a relationship between disturbance severity at a site and seasonal trends in the allocation of resources to vegetative growth and sexual reproduction (flowering)? (2) Does increasing disturbance severity result in a tradeoff between the allocation of resources to sexual reproduction versus vegetative growth? (3) If so, what are the implications of these tradeoffs to the proliferation of this invasive species?{\textquotedblright} (p.50)  A most interesting look at the relationship between anthropogenic disturbances  in a watershed, resulting sedimentation and the spread of an invasive species.
