Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

These areas are commonly called marshes, swamps, and cogs, although other terms are locally applied.

This book was released on 2001-11-06 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing the importance of wetland protection, the Bush administration in 1988 endorsed the goal of "no net loss" of wetlands. Specifically, it directed that filling of wetlands should be avoided, and minimized when it cannot be avoided. When filling is permitted, compensatory mitigation must be undertaken; that is, wetlands must be restored, created, enhanced, and, in exceptional cases, preserved, to replace the permitted loss of wetland area and function, such as water quality improvement within the watershed. After more than a dozen years, the national commitment to "no net loss" of wetlands has been evaluated. This new book explores the adequacy of science and technology for replacing wetland function and the effectiveness of the federal program of compensatory mitigation in accomplishing the nation's goal of clean water. It examines the regulatory framework for permitting wetland filling and requiring mitigation, compares the mitigation institutions that are in use, and addresses the problems that agencies face in ensuring sustainability of mitigated wetlands over the long term. Gleaning lessons from the mixed results of mitigation efforts to date, the book offers 10 practical guidelines for establishing and monitoring mitigated wetlands. It also recommends that federal, state, and local agencies undertake specific institutional reforms. This book will be important to anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the "no net loss" issue: policy makers, regulators, environmental scientists, educators, and wetland advocates.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project was to classify and describe forested tidal wetlands on Maryland's Eastern Shore in an effort to develop a more complete understanding of these communities. The classification generated by this study and presented in this report will be used to augment the ongoing Maryland natural community classification (Harrison 2004b) and the USNVC (Grossman et al. 1998). With this classification, exemplary examples of each community type were identified and described as reference sites. The information gathered in this project will be used to complement other projects studying tidal wetlands in the eastern United States.
