Short arm splints should not be used when prevention of pronation and supination is necessary. In this case, a sugar-tong splint, a long arm splint, or a long arm cast should be considered. The decision to apply a splint rather than a cast requires several considerations. Although casts provide more support by virtue of their circumferential nature, they can be more difficult to apply.
A marsh is a wetland that is dominated by herbaceous rather than woody plant species. Marshes can often be found at the edges of lakes and streams, where they form a transition between the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. They are often dominated by grasses, rushes or reeds. If woody plants are present they tend to be low-growing shrubs.
Marshes are usually found on the edge of a stream, pond, or lake. They often flood, and if the surrounding area gets too dry, they feed the water from the flood back to stream, pond, or lake. Common plants, animals, and insects in a marsh are:1  cattail.2  reed. 3  red-winged blackbird.4  great blue heron.5  sandhill crane.arshes are usually found on the edge of a stream, pond, or lake.
