    Wetlands Ecology Track: New Wetland Ecology Concentration in Environmental Science Wetland ecology is an exciting and relatively new field of environmental science that often intertwines disciplines such as plant ecology, wildlife biology, hydrology, geology, soil and water chemistry, paleoecology, and remote sensing in an effort to address conservation and management problems. Large areas of wetland, ranging from freshwater and salt marshes to forested swamps to peatland bogs and fens have been destroyed or impacted by human activities, and laws enacted to protect remaining wetlands resulted in creation of many new career opportunities that cover a spectrum of interests. The time is ripe for students to take advantage of this opportunity.
    Wetlands . That paper outlined the coursework requirements needed for development of the next generation of scientists and managers who will conserve our valuable wetland resources. Few universities offer a focused program in wetland science. This opportunity at Brockport could therefore make our graduating students attractive candidates for a variety of career positions and graduate programs (see

ABOUT THE COLUMBIA VALLEY WETLANDS
B.C.'s Columbia Valley contains one of the longest systems of continuous wetlands in North America.
Over 265 species of birds have been recorded in a 150 km stretch of the Columbia Valley Wetlands from Canal Flats to Spillimacheen. Lewis’ woodpecker, Blue Grouse, Great Blue Heron, Osprey, Bald Eagle, American Dipper and the Wood duck. Eagles are common throughout the year but can be seen most abundantly along the river when the Kokanee Salmon spawn in the shallow creek beds. The wetlands are also a main congregation area for trumpeter and tundra swan to rest and replenish food reserves for the long migrations in spring and fall.
Various wildlife can be seen along the spectacular expanses of marsh, river and woodland habitats of the Columbia Valley floor. Moose, deer and coyote are common throughout the year. Black bear are present and are most commonly seen when the salmon spawning takes place. Watch for beaver, otter and muskrat especially in the evenings.
Flanked by grasslands, forest, alpine meadows and rocky crags this "Serengeti of the North" supports abundant wildlife and provides spectacular vistas

Conducts research related to sustainable management and restoration of the nation's coastal saltwater wetlands, coastal and inland freshwater wetlands, submerged aquatic ecosystems, and coastal prairie. Capabilities Issues Research ecologists at NWRC study causes and loss of threatened coastal ecosystems, and investigate how to stabilize, restore, and manage the coastal landscape. Inland grass beds and seagrass beds (some of the most valuable of fish nursery grounds, waterfowl foods, and beach stabilizers) are being diminished worldwide; barrier islands in the Gulf of Mexico will suffer if their seagrasses are lost. Coastal saltwater and freshwater marshes are particularly endangered in Louisiana with losses of 90-130 square kilometers (35-50 square miles) a year. Coastal prairies in Texas and Louisiana have had dramatic losses with only about 1% of the original vast acreage remaining. Return to NWRC Organization and Programs Accessibility FOIA Privacy ...

Wetland Ecology and Functions Wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems in the world, comparable to rain forests and coral reefs. An immense variety of species of microbes, plants, insects, amphibians, reptiles, birds, fish, and mammals can be part of a wetland ecosystem. Physical and chemical features such as climate, landscape shape (topology), geology, and the movement and abundance of water help to determine the plants and animals that inhabit each wetland. The complex, dynamic relationships among the organisms inhabiting the wetland environment are referred to as food webs. Wetlands provide great volumes of food that attract many animal species. These animals use wetlands for part of or all of their life-cycle. Dead plant leaves and stems break down in the water to form small particles of organic material called "detritus." This enriched material feeds many small aquatic insects, shellfish, and small fish that are food for larger predatory fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and mammals.

Many wetlands are unique to a certain degree, as their individual characteristics are determined by a combination of factors such as climate, soils, hydrology, and vegetation. One of the most important factors that determines the overall nature of a wetland however, is hydrology, since the timing, quantity, and duration of water flow strongly influences both abiotic and biotic factors within a wetland. Abiotic factors that are determined by hydrology in a wetland could include soil texture, water quality, or topography, whereas biotic factors influenced by hydrology in a wetland would be plant and animal types, diversity, or quantity. Of course, hydrology doesn't always affect biology, as animals such as beavers can change the nature of a stream by constructing a dam, or vegetation can build up over time in an area and reduce available surface water through increasing evapotranspiration. Most wetlands experience a fluctuating water level on a seasonal or even yearly basis, so some areas that are difficult to identify as wetlands during the summer may be completely inundated during the winter.

    Wetlands Ecology
    Wetlands are areas with seasonal or permanent shallow surface water or water-saturated soils. Wetlands are becoming an increasingly important environmental issue, as approx. 52% of our nation's wetlands have been lost. We are now beginning to comprehend the valuable role of wetlands in water management, plant and animal biodiversity and global nutrient cycles. In December 2001, BSU received a generous donation from the Katherine Neilson-Cram Foundation to create the George W. Nielson Endowed Chair of Wetlands Ecology within the Department of Biology. Dr. Richard Koch was hired in August 2002 to fulfill the goals of this endowment. Dr. Koch is cooperating with faculty and students in Aquatic Biology, Biology, and Environmental Sciences at BSU and with outside natural resource agencies to establish BSU as an internationally recognized institute for wetlands education, research, and management. The Bemidji area is ideal for studying wetlands, since it has a large diversity of local wetland ecosystems, including bogs, fens, marshes, swamps, prairie potholes, lakes and rivers. BSU offers a unique opportunity for training experts in wetland ecology, delineation, management, and preservation. Through the George W. Nielson Endowed Chair, BSU is moving to the forefront in filling the demand for highly skilled wetland professionals needed by natural resource agencies.
