Without swamps, many types of plants and animals may not exist. There are a few species of Cypress and Nyess tress that only grow in swamps because their seeds require "flooding" to germinate. Animal diversity depends on if the swamp is fresh water, still water, running water, etc.Swamps are critically important in the processes of providing freshwater and oxygen to all life, and are often breeding grounds for a wide variety of life. Freshwater swamps are valuable wetlands that offer many important benefits including flood control, groundwater recharge, pollution cleanup, wildlife habitat, and recreation. Many swamps are located alongside rivers and provide areas for storage of excess water during floods. Some swamps collect rainwater, runoff, and shallow groundwater during wet periods and help to recharge the aquifers beneath Florida during dry periods. Swamps also help to remove water pollutants. As water filters through wetland vegetation and soils, nutrients, sediments, and pollutants are removed. Wetlands improve water quality in several ways. For example, low oxygen levels in swamp water and soils promote the removal of nitrate-nitrogen through denitrification. Also freshwater swamps serve as a valuable recreation location for visitors. Millions of people visit swamps each year to take part in activities such as bird watching, camping, fishing, boating, and hiking. Read the attached articles for more information.If you consider wetlands swamps, they're incredibly important in preventing soil erosion and flooding.
Swamps are formed near low lying areas around lakes or rivers, more water than can runoff!!!
swamps are important because they filter pollution, prevent erosion and flooding, habitat for animals, provide food, recreation, research and education
they use up alot of water that can be processesed into drinking water. It also gives animal a natural habitat that give human more space to live as well.
They hold water and keep it from running off. This contained water then seeps into the ground creating ground water.
swamps are just like marshes except bigger they have alligators and lots of different animals in them they're all gooey and mushy and i hope i never have to go into one!

~There are two types of swamps, forested and shrub swamps. ~In the US swamps cover approximately 100,000 square miles. ~Swamps develop in moist climates ~Swamps contain a natural filtration system that cleans the water even better than our man made factories. ( Hope this can help!)
