Wetlands are areas of land that are either covered or saturated with water. These habitats include mangroves, peatlands, rivers, lakes, marshes, rice paddies, estuaries, mudflats, and tidal flats.
Wetlands are important because they reduce flooding and drought, store carbon, and serve as a food source and shelter for many animals, plants, and even microorganisms.
