This study sampled nearly 50 wetland sites (natural, converted, and hydrologically restored wetlands) in Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia (U.S.), each sampled at 4 landscape elevations over a 3-year monitoring period. The results indicate that hydrologically restored wetlands are more similar to natural wetlands than converted wetlands.
