The invasive species prevents sunlight from reaching bay grasses adequately and competes for space with native plants which leads to their displacement.
Trapa natans known as Water Chestnut grows best in nutrient-rich water bodies that have slow currents and soft bed materials. The plant develops feathery leaves submerged underwater which attach to the sediment below through branching roots while rosette formations emerge and produce four white flowers in July leading to hard seeds with razor-sharp spines when maturity is reached.
Aquatic nuisance plants function as obstructive vegetation by limiting light penetration and shading sunlight while competing for space with native aquatic organisms and changing their habitats. The breakdown of aquatic plants leads to lower dissolved oxygen levels and increased water temperatures which create harmful conditions for fish populations.
