Description:    Wetlands on the Kam-Kotia, Heath-Steele, Nickel Rim, Nigadoo River, Brunswick #12, and Waite Amulet sites were studied. The study set out to analyse the sediment chemistry, hydrology, and vegetation communities found in such wetlands used to remediate acidic, metal-rich waste waters.
