The long-term goal of Bark’s Clackamas Wetlands Habitat Restoration Program is to contribute to the year-round reliability of drinking water and success of salmon recovery efforts through wetland restoration activities. Wetlands improve water quality by trapping sediments and pollutants, recharging aquifers, storing water, and reducing the severity of floods. This project is the second of three phases of mixed methods fieldwork will capture the characteristics of sites that yield information about wetland hydroperiod and are most salient to beaver survival.
