Aquatic vegetation survey 2012 for Douglas Lake.

Management of aquatic plant communities is important to maintain a stable lake ecosystem. Aquatic plants surveys are a good start to understanding the macrophyte community by recording plant species, abundance, density, and the presence of invasive species. In 2012, the Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council cooperated with the University of Michigan Biological Station to execute an aquatic plant survey of Douglas Lake to determine the overall health of the aquatic plant community.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/94571/1/Bromilow_Diem_Felbaum_Fortino_Parsons_Stamplis_Steffler_2012.pd
