Kentula, M.E., R.P. Brooks, S.E. Gwin, C.C. Holland, A.D. Sherman, and J.C. Sifneos. 1993. An Approach to Improving Decision Making in Wetland Restoration and Creation. CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL. 151p.

      The Wetland Research Program (WRP) Approach contains performance criteria derived from natural and restored/created wetlands that allow resource managers to monitor the success of wetland restoration projects. This book is full of practical advice on how to:
      • plan a monitoring program
      • select appropriate sites
      • perform functional assessments
      • involve volunteers
      • improve design guidelines for wetland restoration projects
      The WRP Approach was developed for freshwater, nontidal wetlands but may be adapted to other systems.
