What is the difference between rivers and wetlands?
Rivers : flowing fresh water. Wetlands : tidal flows or almost none, brackish water (i.e, partially salt).
How do coastal wetlands differ from freshwater wetlands?
Coastal wetlands are those wetlands that are within, along, or near tidally-influenced water bodies. Their source of water (hydrology) may be salt, fresh, or both (brackish). 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).

What is most likely to contain brackish water?
Estuaries are most likely to contain brackish water, which is a mix of freshwater from rivers and saltwater from the ocean. Other areas where brackish water can be found include salt marshes, coastal lagoons, and mangrove swamps.
What are the characteristics of wetlands?
Wetlands are characterized by saturated soil that supports unique vegetation like cattails and mangroves. They play a vital role in flood control, water purification, and providing habitat for diverse plant and animal species. Wetlands can be freshwater, saltwater, or brackish, depending on their location and the type of water they contain.
What is it called when fresh water meets seawater?
When fresh water meets seawater, it is called a "brackish water" environment. This occurs in estuaries or coastal wetlands where rivers flow into the ocean.
