Wetlands Research Bulletin: Characterization and Restoration of Wetlands Research Program, Mar 1999.

Abstract

For over two decades, wetland creation and restoration have been part of the Corps' mission, and throughout this time, the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station (WES) has been conducting research and providing technical advice in support of creation and restoration projects, planning, operations and maintenance, and regulatory responsibilities. Despite the massive amount of information already in circulation, endless questions remain unanswered. While it is easy to come up with research projects that keep scientists busy, it is more challenging to identify those that offer the most benefit to Corps of Engineers projects and regulatory responsibilities. In charting a course for a work unit called "Guidelines and Standards for Wetlands Restoration and Creation," funded as part of Characterization and Restoration of Wetlands Research Program (CRWRP), both needs and opportunities for research had to be considered.
