The module focuses on potential uses of Field Indicators of Hydric Soils to assess hydrologic characteristics of individual wetlands. This module does not teach about the Field Indicators themselves, but rather the benefits of hydrologic characterization and considerations for the use of the Field Indicators in onsite decision making. Notes: It is not the objective of this module to provide training on the field Indicators themselves. Training on field indicators is available in Module 10 of this NAWM Hydric Soils Online Training Series.

The module focuses on how wetland professionals can use soil science principles in onsite decision making for work in the areas of wetland mitigation, voluntary wetland restoration and wetland creation. The module identifies common fallacies about wetland creation and reviews wetland soil reconstruction guidance protocols. The module includes a review of learning from 20 years of collaborative research on the limitations of created wetland soils.
