In this four-day online course, learn the fundamentals of functional design, how to rapidly assess the distribution of hydrology on your site, and how to create useable hydrographs for the presentation of your wetland design.
Start with the five basic steps for developing a successful wetland construction plan.
- Planning your project
- Selecting your construction model
- Preparing your water budget and hydrograph
- Determining proper vegetation
- Manipulating soil
You will study water budget calculations, hydrogeomorphology, the Thornthwaite Method, estimating stream flow, creating presentation-worthy hydrographs, and more.
