Description:

Through instructor-led online lectures and a virtual field exercise, you will learn the fundamentals of how hydric soils form and how to describe layers encountered in a hydric soil vertical cross section (profile). You will be trained on how to distinguish the nuances of soil color, redoximorphic features, and field estimates of soil texture. You will also be instructed on how to complete the minimum data entries needed to complete a generic wetland delineation data form and, based on the soil description, how to assign appropriate hydric soil indicators.

NOTE: If you are planning to earn the Wetland Delineation Certificate, we require that you complete the Vegetation Identification for Delineating Wetlands: North or South and Hydric Soils courses prior to attending Methodology for Delineating Wetlands.
