Vascular Plants, Excluding Island Sites, Of Lake Of The Woods County, Minnesota, Janet Boe
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
It is likely that almost 150 newly-recorded items were collected and identified during a study of the vascular flora of Lake of the Woods county on Minnesota's northern border with Canada. This collection apparently extended the known range of a number of plants within the state and also noted sites of several plants of which there are only a few collections in Minnesota The study was conducted as part of the author's Master of Science degree program at the University of Minnesota.

Ecology And Floristics Of Knife Island, A Gull Rookery On Lake Superior, John M. Bernard, Donald W. Davidson, Rudy G. Koch
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
ABSTRACT - Certain aspects of the ecology and floristics of Knife Island, Minnesota, a small gull rookery on the north shore of Lake Superior, were studied. 63 species of vascular plants, and 23 species of Bryophytes were collected, including one newly recorded in this state. Very high levels of soil organic matter, phosphate, and potassium were present, and low pH levels (ranging from 3.6 to 4.2) were found. These levels appear to reflect the intensive use of the island by the herring gulls. It is concluded that the major factor controlling the development of the flora and vegetation of Knife …

Species Distribution In A Prairie In Relation To Water-Holding Capacity, Max L. Partch
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
Plants are seldom distributed uniformly, if an area of much size is considered, since even the smallest environmental differences may affect the success of some species. This study is an attempt to correlate the nonrandom distribution of plants in one prairie area with one measurable environmental factor, namely waterholding capacity. The well known phenomenon of zonation concerns a marked change in environment and therefore in species, and, as seems quite obvious, therefore also a change in plant communities. What might seem more obvious than real, however, is the boundary between any two of these so-called communities. It is possible that …
