Wetlands were once commonly drained for two reasons. It makes land available for farming and building. Draining also improves health by eliminating waterborne diseases and/or vectors like mosquitos.
Today it is considered unethical to drain wetlands unless human health is in jeopardy. It is environmentally damaging and often does more harm than good. There are several places where government is trying to reverse human damage to wetlands like the US states of Louisiana, Florida, and Maryland.
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.
Marsh
As deep as it wants.
Yes, wetlands often have high levels of precipitation due to their unique environmental conditions. The combination of waterlogged soils, abundant vegetation, and proximity to bodies of water can lead to frequent rain in wetland areas.
If ducks were to disappear from a wetland, there might be an increase in the population of certain plant species that ducks feed on, leading to potential overgrowth and changes in the wetland's ecosystem. Additionally, the absence of ducks could impact nutrient cycling and seed dispersion, which could alter the overall biodiversity and health of the wetland.
