Compare, e. g., Claridege v. N. H. Wetlands Bd., 485 A. 2d 287, 292 ( N. H. 1984 ) ( owner may, without compensation, be barred from filling wetlands because landfilling would deprive adjacent coastal habitats and marine fisheries of ecological support ), with, e. g., Bartlett v. Zoning Comm ' n of Old Lyme, 282 A. 2d 907, 910 ( Conn. 1971 ) ( owner barred from filling tidal marshland must be compensated, despite municipality's " laudable " goal of " preserv marshlands from encroachment or destruction ").

Wetlands are generally minerotrophic with the exception of bogs.

Wetlands with low pH and saline conductivity may reflect the presence of acid sulfates and wetlands with average salinity levels can be heavily influenced by calcium or magnesium.

A three-year project carried out by Wetlands International in partnership with the International Water Management Institute found that it is possible to conserve wetlands while improving the livelihoods of people living among them.

Wetlands are difficult areas upon which to build housing estates, so dredging part of the wetland down to a navigable channel provides fill to build up another part of the wetland above the flood level for houses.

Kakadu ’ s wetlands are listed under the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance ( the Ramsar Convention ) for their outstanding ecological, botanical, zoological and hydrological features.

Wetlands are also considered the most biologically diverse of all ecosystems, serving as home to a wide range of plant and animal life.

Wetlands have unique characteristics: they are generally distinguished from other water bodies or landforms based on their water level and on the types of plants that thrive within them.

Wetlands are very effective at filtering and cleaning water pollution, ( often from agricultural runoff from the farms that replaced the wetlands in the first place ).

Wetlands are vital ecosystems that provide livelihoods for the millions of people who live in and around them.

Individual birds formerly appeared regularly at WWT Slimbridge in Gloucestershire, England, where they inspired Sir Peter Scott to set up The Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust – modern records, however, are far less frequent, a consequence of the species ' decline on its European breeding grounds.

They are common in winter in the wildfowl nature reserves of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust.

It flows for 480km into the Bangweulu Swamps, which are part of Lake Bangweulu, and by the end of the rainy season in May, it delivers a flood which recharges the swamps and inundates a vast floodplain to the southeast, supporting the Bangweulu Wetlands ecosystem.
