"Restoring Prairie Wetlands is a guide to restoring wetlands in the southern portion of the prairie pothole region, which covers parts of Iowa, Minnesota, and South Dakota. Based on data collected from restorations throughout this region, it provides specific information on the plants, animals, soils, and hydrology of prairie potholes; the selection of suitable sites; and the design, evaluation, and management of wetlands. Many practical and easy-to-use tools are included, such as the nomogram for predicting a restored basin's hydrology, guides to identifying plants and animals, data sheets to assist all aspects of the restoration, and lists of the hardware suppliers, agencies providing planning assistance, and sources of plant materials."--BOOK JACKET. "Restoring Prairie Wetlands is designed for farmers; personnel in government and private agencies that fund, plan, construct, and manage restorations; and public officials and other policymakers concerned with natural resource issues."--BOOK JACKET.
