Mechanisms for resilience
Diversity (diversity resilience)
Connectivity (local, regional, national, global)
Functional seed bank (ecosystem integrity)

What is a seed bank? Seeds, spores, propagules buried in the soil
Dormant (i.e. don’t germinate immediately)
Innate dormancy (i.e. born with it)
Enforced dormancy (i.e. imposed by conditions)
Lets also include animal bits…….
Cysts (aestivating adult animals)
Eggs (sexual reproductive organs)
Asexual reproductive organs

We need to consider seed banks when we try to restore wetlands
How does the seed bank compare with what is in the extant vegetation?
How does the seed bank compare with what we want to be there?
Can we use existing information to predict the contribution seed banks might make to restoration?

Potential use of data What species (groups of species) remain?
What other species can we detect?
Are there any differences among the sites?
Can one site be considered as a potential ‘donor’?
Has the vegetation changed over time?
What happens to a temporary wetland seed bank after many years of inundation?
How does seed bank analysis compare with other measures of wetland function/quality?
