Wetlands are unique ecosystems characterized by the presence of water, either permanently or seasonally, which creates saturated soil conditions. They support specialized plants and wildlife adapted to these waterlogged environments, including diverse flora such as cattails and sedges. Additionally, wetlands play a crucial role in water filtration, flood control, and carbon storage, differentiating them from other terrestrial ecosystems. Their biodiversity and ecological functions make them vital for environmental health and resilience.
Deserts are barren and not that much water Wetlands are wet
noah
there is no average windspeed because all the different wetlands are in different areas some are hotter than others and some are colder so they are all different
what makes up wetlands is a large number of plants,animals,insects and reptiles also a wetland could be a swaps and lakes.
No. Rainforests can grow around wetlands, but on the whole, wetlands are not characterised by the thick vegetation of a rainforest. Different types of wetlands are more likely to be characterised by river red gums, or grasses and reeds, or mangroves (saltwater wetlands).
MULTIPLE different plants do live in wetlands including cattalils, tall grass, and others that absorb water.

Wetlands present a diverse ecological community where ever they occur. The animals and plants are dependent on the location (Tropical wetlands would have different biota than boreal forest wetlands)
No, there are different types of wetlands. Such as marshes, bogs, swamps, and fens.
Because it rains a lot of times it makes the ground wet an than it stays wet so it makes a wetland.
There are many wetlands in California
no there are a lot different between the two.
