| Abstract: | One of many potential uses of the hydrogeomorphic (HGM) approach for assessing wetland functions is the monitoring of newly restored wetland sites to determine how quickly wetland functions develop and whether function-based mitigation objectives are being met. This technical note presents a case study of the application of the Western Kentucky Low-Gradient Riverine Guidebook to monitoring the development of wetland functions on a number of bottomland hardwood forest sites in the first 15 years following restoration or abandonment from agriculture. |
