Wetlands

The National Resources Inventory (NRI) is a statistical survey of natural resource conditions and trends on non-Federal land in the United States. Non-Federal land includes privately owned lands, tribal and trust lands, and lands controlled by state and local governments. The NRI provides nationally consistent statistical data on Palustrine and Estuarine wetlands and other aquatic habitats for the period 1992 - 2003. The NRI provides information on types and classes of wetlands, regional distributions, and associated factors like soils and land use. Of particular interest are trends in wetland gains and losses due to agricultural activities.
