- Association The vegetation communities were related to three groundwater types.
- Observation Nutrient-rich Glyceria maxima communities increased.
- Observation Nutrient-rich Carex acuta/Carex aquatilis typicum communities increased.
- Observation The nutrient-poor Carex nigra community increased.
- Observation Mesotrophic Magnocaricion communities decreased.
- Mechanism The authors suggest a land consolidation ditch diverted base flow and caused the succession.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that hydrological change outside the reserve can counter management inside it.
