Estuarine Wetlands are wetlands occurring in the Estuarine System, one of five systems in the classification of wetlands and deepwater habitat . Estuarine wetlands are tidal wetlands that are usually semi-enclosed by land but have open, partly obstructed or sporadic access to the open ocean, and in which ocean water is at least occasionally diluted by freshwater runoff from the land. The most common example is where a river flows into the ocean
Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve was created in 1997.
The smallest wetland would likely be a small pond or marsh covering just a few square meters. Wetlands are defined by the presence of water, so even a small area that stays consistently wet can be considered a wetland.
An estuarine flood occurs when water levels in an estuary rise significantly, typically due to a combination of high tides, storm surges, and heavy rainfall. This can result in inundation of low-lying areas, causing damage to infrastructure, habitats, and potentially threatening human safety. Estuarine floods can also lead to saltwater intrusion into freshwater systems, affecting water quality and ecosystems.
