Floating Mats
Over the past twenty years,
we have been conducting experiments to devise a system that provides the
benefits of vegetated littoral shelves without having to deal with the
problems associated with changing water levels. Using interlocking mats,
combined with aquatic plants in perforated pots, we can suspend a
simulated shallow water environment. This not only takes care of
fluctuating water levels, but also produces oxygen, takes nutrients and
pesticides out of the water, and provides habitat for wildlife
utilization. The floating plant mat (US patent pending) consists of
puzzle cut mats held together by nylon connectors. These mats may be
assembled in any size or shape. After the mats are connected, plants are
inserted into pre-cut holes. The plants may be any species of emergent
aquatics. The mats can be attached to anchors or shoreline stakes.
