Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association A violent typhoon wind in August 1985 decreased the Trapa natans stand.
- Association The Trapa natans stand recovered in 1986 from buried seed and seed produced before the typhoon.
- Association The water-level rise after the August 1986 typhoon did not reduce the Trapa natans stand where currents were absent.
- Mechanism Winds and water currents during the growing period are important for the survival of Trapa natans.
- Mechanism Buried seeds and long stem length let Trapa natans stands survive frequent disturbances.
