Book excerpt: Wetland Habitatsis a practical manual that puts developments in the field of wetland restoration and conservation of diverse animal species into plain English, placing much of the more recent work in this field into a single, coherent and user-friendly framework.

The plants and planting aspects of created wetlands and dams are dealt with in detail in the second edition of Planting Wetlands and Dams.
