Overview
Emergent aquatic plants are defined as plants rooted with stiff or firm stems that stand above the water surface. These emergent or shoreline plants can offer many benefits, mainly related to serving as a buffer between terrestrial and aquatic systems, which reduces bank erosion from flooding, wind, and wave action during weather events.
