The Basics of Wetland Hydrology and Soils
with Matt Schweisberg


Are you new to wetland identification and delineation? Are you looking for a refresher in wetland hydrology and soils? If so, this workshop is for you. A morning in the classroom will cover the science of wetland hydrology and wetland (hydric) soils; basic concepts and key terms; and field approaches. The afternoon will be spent in the field where participants will apply the science, concepts and approaches to 1) prepare basic soil profile descriptions, and 2) document the field indicators of wetland hydrology and hydric soils used to determine the occurrence and location of wetlands and their boundaries. Morning refreshments will be available. Please bring a bag lunch and available field equipment, such as soil color charts, an auger or spade. Wear footwear appropriate for muddy conditions.
