ArcGIS: IntroductionArcGIS: Editing and Data Development Series

You cannot delineate a wetland without experience identifying wetland plants. When you enroll in the series, you should complete Vegetation Identification prior to Methodology for Delineating Wetlands.

VEgEtAtION IDENtIfICAtION - SOUtHSeptember 15 and 16, 2011 Course Code: EH0201CA12 $515 before 9/1/11; $525 after; $495 multiple

Plants are the most obvious clues to wetland boundaries. Our two-day combination classroom and field course will teach you how to draw a wetland line by identifying a variety of wetland plant species.Consultants Joseph Arsenault and theodore gorden provide a unique perspective to field identification methods for southern New Jersey vegetation cover types. Learn to identify the area’s most common wetland types and their constituent trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants by studying communities found along coastal plains. Plant distributions will be explained on the basis of geology, soils and hydrology.

Required Textbooks- A Field Guide to Wildflowers: Northeastern and North-Central North America (Peterson Field Guides) [ISBN 0395911729] - $25- The Shrub Identification Book [ISBN 0688050409] G. Symonds - $30

Increase your expertise by learning to identify vegetation during the winter season with botanists, Bill Olson and Linda rohleder. Most species remain available for identification throughout the cold, winter months. With the right clues and tips on what to look for, you can gain the expertise of winter plants throughout northern AND southern New Jersey environments.

Learn the methods of the experts! This four-day course will introduce you to delineating wetlands using the Federal Interagency Wetland Delineation Manual, which is required for use in New Jersey. Techniques taught will also be applicable to individuals interested in using the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual as well.

Recognize the key indicators of wetlands (hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils and wetland hydrology) while expert instructors ralph tiner and Dr. Peter Veneman show you how to use them in following proper delineation methods. Immediately apply criteria learned in the classroom by performing wetland determinations during team field exercises.

VEgEtAtION: Analyze plant communities and identify dominant plant and indicators of hydrophytic vegetation

SOILS: Identify sandy and non-sandy hydric soils based on the National List of hydric soil field indicators

HYDrOLOgY: Recognize direct and indirect indicators

Thousands of septic systems and stormwater basins malfunction for the same reason: failure to understand how water moves (or doesn’t move!) through soil. You cannot hope to design and build these structures without a down-and-dirty understanding of these soils. That’s what this hands-on course is all about. You will spend equal time moving between lectures in the classroom to soil pits in the field, evaluating soils using your eyes, hands, and nose. You will observe, record and evaluate the site-specific soil characteristics required to write and support a complete soil log, as well as evaluate the soil and landscape data to determine design input. Most importantly, you will develop the necessary tools to determine whether a site is right – legally and practically -- for a septic system or stormwater runoff Best Management Practices (BMPs) facility.

When you delineate wetlands without the proper training or experience, you run the risk of regulatory and career repercussions. Wetlands training can be difficult to grasp if you start your education in an advanced course. Don’t make the mistake of jumping into the Methodology for Delineating Wetlands course without first being exposed to the basic principles of wetland delineation in this course!

This one-day combination classroom and field course, led by wetland expert, ralph tiner will teach you the basics of wetland identification and introduce you to the practice of wetland delineation. It will provide the essential background material needed for further study in the field of wetland delineation. Come review the skills you need to begin to identify freshwater wetlands and their boundaries!
