ESCI 477 - Wetland Plant Identification

Through field trips and laboratory work we will learn to identify the common fresh and estuarine wetland trees, shrubs and herbaceous vegetation found in the Pacific Northwest. This class is appropriate for new students who would like an introduction to wetland vegetation, as well as for more advanced students who want to learn some of the more difficult taxa of the region (the grasses, sedges, and rushes, for example).
