They are divided, by subject matter into four general categories: 1. Restoration of a large river basin and delta; 2. Long-term wetland restoration; 3. Creation of wetlands for mitigation of wetland loss; 4. Conservation and restoration of the world’s wetlands.
* Provides key integrated, long-term assessments
* Covers a selection of the world's most significant wetlands
* Addresses management approaches for wetland conservation, creation and restoration
* Covers a selection of the world's most significant wetlands
* Addresses management approaches for wetland conservation, creation and restoration
Researchers and wetland managers working on wetland creation, restoration or conservation, ecological engineers, hydrologists, environmental lawyers and planners
