Summary |
"Constructed Wetlands in the Sustainable Landscape is the first book to integrate aesthetic design and planning issues with the technical aspects of wetlands engineering. Landscape architect Craig S. Campbell and engineer Michael H. Ogden clearly demonstrate how the successful development and management of multifunctional, sustainable wetland habitats depend on harnessing the knowledge and working principles of a number of disciplines."--BOOK JACKET. "Clearly written and accessible to nonengineers and nonscientists, Constructed Wetlands in the Sustainable Landscape is a guide for landscape architects, environmental engineers, planners, developers, and others responsible for the design and management of our built environment."--BOOK JACKET |
