Developing Methods Estimating Submersed Aquatic Vegetation Biomass in the Upper Mississippi River

Estimation of submersed aquatic vegetation (SAV) biomass was evaluated using field data collected in 2017, and targeted analyses of three existing data sets: 1) Yin and Kreiling (2001), Drake et al. (2016), and 3) LTRM vegetation data (1998 – 2017).
Two field studies were completed in 2017. The first targeted SAV biomass in raked plots and was conducted in collaboration with USFWS annual Lake Onalaska Vallisneria americana monitoring. In the second study, fresh weights of raked SAV were recorded at approximately 10% of LTRM Pools 4 and 8 2017 sampling sites.
