Understanding Wetlands; Fen, Bog and Marsh

Editorial Reviews
Review
This volume should be very useful to managers, scientists, and students interested in almost all aspects of northern forested wetlands. In fact, it is a necessary addition to the library of anyone interested in general wetland ecology and management.
-Michael G. Messina, Department of Forest Science, Texas A & M University

Book Description
Understanding Wetlands explains how wetlands are created naturally and how they sustain themselves. It describes how the flora and fauna of these unique habitats are adapted to their environment and how the ecosystem copes with pollutants and climatic change. The book assesses the impact of human activity such as farming, building and recreation and concludes with a look at the need for conservation and various conservation techniques. This integrated and holistic account of wetlands is a valuable reference for students of ecology, biology, and environmental science. Its beautiful illustrations and accessible style also make it ideal for general readers with an interest in the natural world.
