3.1.3. Lakeshore Marsh Around Sodic Lakes
This type occurs in the riparian zone of the inland sodic lakes (Figure 3) and generally
flooded with shallow water in spring, which warms up rapidly. Even in some cases they can
have a permanent water cover with a high salt content and generally dry out till the end of the
summer. The dominant monocot species is an interglacial relict species,
Schoenoplectus
litoralis
.
Schoenoplectus tabernaemontani
is also often present with low abundance. In the
dried stands, the open muddy surface harbours several Nanocyperion species, such as
Acorellus pannonicus
,
Crypsis aculeata, C. alopecuroides, C. schoenoides
and salt-tolerant
Chenopodium
species as
Ch. glaucum
and
Ch. rubrum
.
