Abstract
This is the second in a series for articles prepared for WSP to address what, from my perspective, have become principles of wetland creation and restoration that have evolved after working in this field for more than 40 years. Before moving into the case study presented in this offering, I would like to address another fundamental principle that relates to planning and improving outcomes. This principle centers on the obvious, that wetlands are complex ecosystems, and these ecosystems are often driven by physical and chemical processes that in some circumstances supersede or override purely biological aspects of a particular site. Further, due to specialized training, education and experiences, in the past, practitioners and researchers may have been inclined to concentrate their efforts in much narrower problem-solving parameters (their comfort zone) rather than actively embracing multiple aspects of a much larger and interwoven web of functional drivers.
