Abstract
The importance of seed burial to species presence on mid-Atlantic beaches was studied on Currituck Bank, North Carolina. Sand accretion and seed depth were measured and compared with potential shoot length and buried shoot length of dominant beach, foredune, and sand-flat species. Excessive seed burial plays an important role in the rarity of Uniola paniculata L. and Spartina patens (Aiton) Muhl. on the beach.
