Book excerpt: The National Wetlands Inventory Program (NWI) has been producing wetland maps and geospatial wetland data for the United States since the mid-1970s. The focus on the program has been on two fronts: 1) map or digital database preparation and delivery to the public, and 2) projecting and reporting on national wetland trends using a probability-based sampling design. The status of mapping has been made available through various media throughout the program's 30-year history (e.g., state atlases, regional status maps, and now through the internet via the Wetlands Mapper online tool). Annual progress reports have been produced for internal uses, but the NWI has never produced a national status report for public distribution. Given the evolution of the NWI, the diversity of products and activities with which the program is involved, and the wide public use of our products, the NWI decided to prepare this first status report. Being the first such report, it provides an introduction to the NWI Program in addition to reporting on the annual progress and activities across the regions. Future annual reports will focus on yearly accomplishments.

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.

Book excerpt: The fed. gov't. supports numerous data programs that assemble & analyze quantitative measures of the nation's environmental conditions & trends (known as indicators). Most of these data programs are housed in fed. agencies, & provide data used by decision makers from the private sector & by gov't. As fed. agencies take actions to improve the coverage & usefulness of these programs, it is equally important that the quality & avail. of existing data generated by these programs do not erode over time.
