Abstract
This publication examines the pollutant removal performance of an urban wetland constructed in a formerly dry detention pond and investigates seasonal trends in removal efficiencies. This research identifies the characteristics contributing to high performance of constructed wetlands in ecosystem reclamation. The report also demonstrates the results of examination of vegetation dynamics of both planted and non-planted constructed wetlands over time. Published by WERF. 60 pages. Soft cover.
Originally funded as WERF project 92-NPS-1.
