Rivers are generally less productive than swamps because they tend to have faster water flow, which limits the accumulation of nutrients and organic matter essential for supporting diverse ecosystems. Additionally, the constant movement of water in rivers can wash away sediments and reduce habitat complexity, making it harder for aquatic plants and animals to thrive. In contrast, swamps often have stagnant or slow-moving waters that promote nutrient retention and provide rich habitats for a wide variety of species.

What water has more salinity than fresh water but less than sea water?
Brackish water has more salinity than fresh water but less than seawater. It is typically found in estuaries, where rivers meet the sea, and can also be found in coastal lagoons and mangrove swamps.
Why is carbon cycled more rapidly in grassland communities than in swamps?
Carbon Cycle occur more rapidly in grasslands because there is higher ph which means there are a lot more decomposers living in that area than in bogs and swamps.In swamps since there is less decomposers in the area, the organic matter gets preserved and not recycled
What are land pollutions?

How does tides help in fishing?
Tides affect fishing because they can provide plenty of fish for fishermen. For example, when the tide is moving, it is more productive and doesn't have slack. When there is less of a slack, then there will be more fishes in the surf.
Why Tides occur in seas but not in lakes?
because rivers are at high level from the sea as the radius of earth increases the force of attraction also increases. sea level are at the lowest point of land in the earth the force of attraction is less at that place because force of attraction is diractly proportional to the radius of the heavenly bodies.
Why are rivers less productive than swamps?

Why are rivers more productive than swamps?
The water flow in rivers is too high.Rivers are less productive than swamps because swamps just like marshes have the highest primary production of all the world's ecosystems.
What percentage of earths fresh surface water is contain in swamps?
Swamps contain less than 1% of Earth's fresh surface water.
Why is a stream less productive than a swamp?
A stream is less productive than a swamp primarily due to its faster water flow and lower nutrient retention. The swift current in streams can wash away organic matter and nutrients, limiting the growth of aquatic plants and organisms. In contrast, swamps have slower-moving water, allowing for more nutrient accumulation and greater biodiversity, which supports a rich ecosystem. Additionally, swamps often have more stable environmental conditions that foster higher productivity.
Why do rivers not freeze and lakes do?
the reason rivers don't freeze is because rivers are always moving where as there alot less movement in lakes

What water has more salinity than fresh water but less than sea water?
