This hands-on workshop uses lectures and fieldwork to teach current regulatory standards and allows students to experience wetland delineation in the field. The morning lecture reviews field indicators for vegetation, soils, and hydrology, atypical situations, problem area wetlands and manual requirements by State and Army Corps methods. The afternoon fieldwork occurs at a nearby wetland system featuring challenging soil and hydrological characteristics. Routine delineations take place along a number of transects. Following field work, we review completed data sheets, transect characteristics, and hold a question and discussion session. Bring a field notebook, bag lunch, and clothes for fieldwork.
