Freshwater wetlands are those wetlands whose water source (hydrology) is of fresh water (not salty or brackish) . They can be tidally influenced by freshwater tides (tidal waterways above the salt line) or may be far inland (hydrology source is usually groundwater, surface waters, or precipitation).
