Kristie enjoys combining her love for visual design, photography, and science in her work. Carolina wetlands are diverse habitats found across the coastal plain, piedmont, and mountain regions of North and South Carolina. Wetlands are transitional areas where land meets water near streams, rivers, lakes and estuaries, or in low-lying flat areas or natural depressions in the landscape. The depth and duration of waterlogging combined with landscape position are key factors in determining when wetland soils develop and which plant species inhabit them to create a wetland community.
