Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Field Guide to the National Wetland Plant List is an up-to-date reference to the wetland indicator status ratings for nearly 7,000 plant species of the United States, and will be useful to anyone conducting wetland delineation studies or performing ecological research in wetland habitats. The ratings indicate a species' likely presence or absence in wetlands in one of five categories: * Obligate Wetland Plants (OBL) * Facultative Wetland Plants (FACW) * Facultative Plants (FAC) * Facultative Upland Plants (FACU) and * Upland Plants (UPL). The Guide incorporates the 2012 version of the National Wetland Plant List (NWPL) which refined the earlier ratings. Also, the new ratings are based on the plant's wetland status within broad ecological regions, eight of which are included in the Guide: Eastern United States * AGCP Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain * EMP Eastern Mountains and Piedmont * MW Midwest * NCNE Northcentral and Northeast Western United States * AK Alaska * AW Arid West * GP Great Plains * WMVC Western Mountains, Valleys and Coast The eight included regions cover the lower 48 states and Alaska; excluded from this Guide are wetland ratings for plants of Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, and the Caribbean region.

Book excerpt: Understand the current concept of wetland and methods for identifying, describing, classifying, and delineating wetlands in the United States with Wetland Indicators - capturing the current state of science's role in wetland recognition and mapping. Environmental scientists and others involved with wetland regulations can strengthen their knowledge about wetlands, and the use of various indicators, to support their decisions on difficult wetland determinations. Professor Tiner primarily focuses on plants, soils, and other signs of wetland hydrology in the soil, or on the surface of wetlands in his discussion of Wetland Indicators. Practicing - and aspiring - wetland delineators alike will appreciate Wetland Indicators' critical insight into the development and significance of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and other factors. Features Color images throughout illustrate wetland indicators. Incorporates analysis and coverage of the latest Army Corps of Engineers delineation manual. Provides over 60 tables, including extensive tables of U.S. wetland plant communities and examples for determining hydrophytic vegetation.

Download or read book Guide to Common Wetland Plants of North Carolina written by Kristie Gianopulos and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fully illustrated guide provides information for identifying over 200 species of plants commonly found in North Carolina's mountain, piedmont, and coastal plain wetlands. It is designed for anyone interested in the state's wetland flora and contains: organization by plant type, key identifying features, maps showing relative commonness by ecoregion, status information from the National Wetland Plant List, habitat information, and a section on commonly confused plants. Wetland plants are indicators of the duration of water in an area. The ability to identify wetland plants is useful to anyone who needs to know where a wetland lies, whether it be landowner, regulator, developer, government, or conservation organization. This version is an update to the 1997 Common Wetland Plants of North Carolina written and illustrated by Karen Kendig before she retired from NC DEQ. The original guide included 128 taxa; this newly revised edition includes 206 taxa, photographs of all taxa, notation of non-native species, and other updated information. Wetlands are valuable, vanishing resources that provide useful functions including water storage and purification, wildlife and aquatic habitat, and outdoor recreation and education. We hope visitors to wetlands will recognize and appreciate the value of these wonderlands, beginning with the observation of wetland plants and animals.
