Spatial differences in predicted Phalaris arundinacea (reed canarygrass) occurrence in floodplain forest understories by John T. Delaney, M. Van Appledorn, N. R. De Jager, K. L. Bouska, J. J. Rohweder

“…Flood frequency, distance to contiguous floodplain, distance to forest edge, and distance to invaded wet meadow were among the most important environmental predictors across the three algorithms. Generally, the mean probability of reed canarygrass presence decreased with increasing flood depth, distance to contiguous floodplain, distance to invaded wet meadow, forest cover, and forest height, while relationships with other predictors were more variable. …”
