[audiobook] Drawing Masterclass: Perspective by Timothy Fisher at Arts-Photography

Description

This book explains how with careful planning and design; the functions and performance of constructed wetlands can provide a huge range of benefits to humans and the environment. It documents the current designs and specifications for free water surface wetlands; horizontal and vertical subsurface flow wetlands; hybrid wetlands and bio retention basins; and explores how to plan; engineer; design and monitor these natural systems. Sections address resource management (landscape planning); technical issues (environmental engineering and botany); recreation and physical design (landscape architecture); and biological systems (ecology). Site and municipal scale strategies for flood management; storm-water treatment and green infrastructure are illustrated with case studies from the USA; Europe and China; which show how these principles have been put into practice.Written for upper level students and practitioners; this highly illustrated book provides designers with the tools they need to ensure constructed wetlands are sustainably created and well manage
