Swamps are areas of wetland that have large, permanent areas of shallow, and sometimes deep, water. They can be either freshor salt water. Swamps are very diverse and are important to the world. Despite this, some swamps are drained because of a threat of disease from the insects found in swamps. Swamps are usualyl surrounded by forests or papyrus. All swamps are plentiful in vegetation. Swamps are found in North and South America, Africa, and Asia. Some famous swamps are the Everglades, the Okekenokee, and the Great Dismal Swamp. A very important swamp in Iraq, part of the Arab Marsh, was drained by Suddam Hussein.
Mangrove swamps are in salt and brackish water up to 4 feet deep in parts of the world where it does not freeze. They have been removed from large areas of Florida for the purpose of development. They have been removed from the Mediterranean coast of North Africa and much of the Middle East and turned into firewood. In that case the loss of transpiration from their leaves turned farmland into desert. In Bangladesh their removal has meant the ocean previously stopped by the mangroves now floods the nation. The refusal of nations to replant mangroves is a great shame.
