Tel.: 1773 508 Sediments from Cheboygan Marsh, a coastal freshwater wetland on Lake Huron 7097; fax: 1773 508 3646; that has been invaded by an emergent exotic plant, Typha glauca, were examined e-mail: jkelly7@luc.edu to assess the effects of invasion on wetland nutrient levels and sediment microbial communities. Comparison of invaded and uninvaded zones of the marsh indicated Received 15 March 2006; revised 28 June 2006; that the invaded zone showed significantly lower plant diversity, as well as accepted 14 July 2006. significantly higher aboveground plant biomass and soil organic matter. The First published online 15 August 2006. sediments in the invaded zone also showed dramatically higher concentrations of soluble nutrients, including greater than 10-fold higher soluble ammonium, DOI:10.1111/j.1574-6968.2006.00409.x nitrate, and phosphate, which suggests that Typha glauca invasion may be impacting the wetlan
