О курсе

In this course, learners will get familiarized with the major components of wetland delineation, including the steps involved and the resources available for remote identification. They will explore the field indicators for hydrology, hydric soils, and vegetation, essential for accurate wetland delineation. The course will cover the best practices for writing wetland delineation reports and the differences between wetland delineation and jurisdictional determination. By the end of the course, learners will have a comprehensive understanding of the processes and indicators used in wetland delineation, enabling them to conduct accurate and effective assessments. This course is part of the College of ACES suite of online programs, including the graduate-level certificate, "Wetland Science and Conservation" that can be stacked toward an online master's degree in Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences. To learn more about online programs from the College of ACES and explore ways to apply your Coursera work toward a degree program at the University of Illinois, visit ACES Online at acesonline.illinois.edu.
