Wetlands Engineering Handbook

Abstract

This handbook discusses engineering procedures for establishing necessary hydrologic conditions, geotechnical design, and soils handling for site modification, selecting appropriate vegetation and planting schemes, and establishing substrate conditions conducive to the desired functions. It also discusses baseline assessments of existing site conditions, monitoring strategies to determine long-term success, and contracting considerations.
