WETLAND RESTORATION

Wetland Restoration

Wetlands are often referred to as an ecotone – a transitional zone between an upland and aquatic ecosystem. Wetlands provide many important functions and values: wildlife habitat, recreation, water filtration, and carbon sequestration. Successful restoration of these dynamic ecosystems requires a comprehensive understanding of hydrological conditions, vegetation communities, soil conditions, and their interactions. Our scientists and engineers have helped clients restore over 200 acres of wetlands, including emergent marshes, forested swamps, scrub-shrub wetlands, vernal pools, and constructed/treatment wetlands. Coldwater employees hold industry certifications including Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS) and Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner (CERP).
