This book is very well put together and provides a wealth of information on Wetland Indicators. If you are just learning about wetlands, what is in them, and how to identify different ones, then this book will be GREAT for you!
This is a great book that thoroughly covers the information you need to identify, delineate, classify and map wetlands. I give it three stars because the black and white pictures of soil, flora, orthophotos, etc. are pretty much useless. For the price, I would expect glossy color pictures.
Very comprehensive by one of the best in the field.
This book is a good overview of Wetland Delineations. I bought it for the mapping information and found it useful when using GIS for Wetland Delineation Maps
I did not find this book very helpful when it came to identification. It did help with classification and mapping.
I got this book in a very timely manner and actually had it for the first day of class- let me tell you that RARELY happens.
