PLANTING WETLANDS AND DAMS A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO WETLAND DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND PROPAGATION
Author(s): ROMANOWSKI NICK
This is a complete manual for planting wetlands and dams, from design and construction to collecting plants, seeds and propagation. It includes comprehensive information for all Australian aquatic and wetland plants used in revegetation, demystifies the processes and practices of wetland and dam planting and exposes some of the more dubious myths propagated in the 1980s and 1990s. Completely revised, this new edition now includes photographs of each major type of wetland including those in the Northern Territory, updated information on regulations and permits, and examines the pros and cons of establishing new wetlands in dry climates.
