Basic Plant Identification for Wetland Delineation
This new, two and one-half day workshop is being
developed in response to
the survey responses received from past Basic and
Advanced Wetland
Delineation workshop participants.
This workshop will introduce participants to the
process of identifying
wetland and aquatic plants using technical keys.
No prior use of keys or
previous identification experience is assumed,
making this truly a "basic"
course.
Planned workshop activities include an
introduction to plant keys and plant
key structure during the morning of day one.
Participants will learn basic
plant structure and morphology during the
afternoon of day one. Woody (trees
and shrubs) plant identification will be
emphasized during the morning of
day two. Herbaceous plant identification (with
emphasis on rushes, sedges
and grasses) will be the focus during the
afternoon of day two and the
morning of day three. A survey will conclude the
planned activities. A
mixture of lab and fieldwork is planned.
