Wetland Functions Sample Clauses

Wetland Functions. The functions that can be attributed to the wetlands on the Donkin peninsula include flood modulation, pollution control, wildlife habitat, productivity, biodiversity and life support. The hydrological and hydrochemical functions of the wetland areas are described in more detail in Section 4.3.4. The large retention capacity of the DEVCO settling pond and Baileys wetland slows the passage of water and promotes sediment removal, resulting in lower sediment export to Schooner Pond Cove. The large amount of free surface water enhances evaporation, which also modulates the basin runoff response. These systems may have had an important role in attenuating historical contamination associated with site activities, e.g., from the waste rock disposal pile. A variety of chemical and biochemical processes, such as microbial degradation, assimilation, precipitation, and adsorption to sediment operate within the wetland environment; all of which may serve to generate an improved water quality to downstream receptors such as Schooner Pond Cove.
