Paper Summary

The researchers studied different types of plants in wetlands near the Fen River and Yellow River. They used field plots and special analysis methods to group the plants into 18 categories based on their characteristics. By analyzing the data, they found that the plants' distribution is mainly influenced by how much water is in the soil.
