Abstract
Physical, chemical and vegetation monitoring show that management actions have increased thermotolerant vegetation growth in the wetland while having a small potential impact on geothermal discharges into the wetland. Increasing the water level in the wetland appears to be helping control plant pest species close to the weir, but has also made sensitive vegetation growing close to the waterways more susceptible to flooding caused by high-intensity rainfall events.
