Bird use of dredged material islands in five areas of Florida was studied. The use of these islands by birds, particularly by colonial nesting sea and wading birds, was documented with two visits to each of 40 selected islands in five study areas in 1977. The islands were used as nesting habitat by 26 species of colonial and 8 species of noncolonial birds. The islands were also used extensively for feeding, loafing, and roosting by these and other species. Various species-habitat interactions and the significance of dredged material islands to colonial nesting sea and wading birds are discussed in detail. (Author).

This study was made to determine succession of vegetation on various aged dredged material islands in Florida. Forty islands in five selected study areas were intensively examined. An extensive literature review was conducted. Vertical aerial photographs and vegetation maps of each island are presented. A total of 141 plant species were found to occur on the islands. In Florida, typical island vegetation occurred through colonization by propagules from water-, wind-, and bird-carried sources. Marsh grasses such as smooth cordgrass preceded establishment by upland species such as Brazilian pepper, Australian pine, sabal palm, and herbaceous and grass cover. Bird use of the islands was directly related to the stage of plant succession, and bird fecal material was found to affect the vegetation both adversely and beneficially depending upon location. Recommendations for management include creation of new islands and enlargement and stabilization of existing eroding islands for bird use. Maintenance of unvegetated sites as critical habitat for terns and black skimmers is also recommended. (Author).

Seven regional DMRP studies were conducted throughout Corps of Engineers-maintained waterways to determine dredged material island use by nesting waterbirds and the succession of vegetation on these islands as affected by bird use, to compare diked and undliked islands and natural and man-made islands and sites, and to study migratory and year-round use of dredged material islands. These data and pertinent management information are synthesized in this report. Recommendations and guidelines for management of existing dredged material islands and creation of new islands are set forth by the authors. Five major factors determining selection for waterbird colony sites on dredged material islands are set forth: isolation from predators and humans, habitat diversity, nesting substrate stability, species behavioral characteristics, and species feeding and foraging habits. Management for waterbird colonies has been proven feasible and may be accomplished by several important factors: a) incorporation of management plants into routine dredging operations, b) interagency and intraagency cooperation, and c) public education and cooperation. It was determined that dredged material islands are often crucial habitat for colonial waterbirds and should be maintained and managed as such.
