Documenting Engineering with Nature(Trademark), Implementation Within the US Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District-Completed Projects and Opportunities for Chronosequence Analysis

Abstract

The following documents the beneficial use of dredged materials in a subset of shallow draft navigation projects conducted by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Baltimore District between 1904 and 2016. The available data demonstrates (1) the expansion of beneficial uses of dredged materials over time incorporating Engineering With Nature (EWN) approaches and (2) provides baseline information supporting chrono sequence studies of habitat restoration/creation trajectories designed to evaluate project success.
