A wetland can be defined as an area of very wet, muddy land covered (saturated) by water with wild plants growing on it. Thus, a wetland is an aquatic ecosystem that is saturated with water such as groundwater.

Basically, the characteristics of a wetland are determined by the following factors:

I. Salinity of the water.

II. The animals and plants living in the wetland.

III. Soil type.

  • Bogs: these are very wet, spongy, muddy wetland that are having very soft ground and varying salinity . Also, a bog is characterized by poorly drained peaty soil.
  • Swamp: this is a forested wetland that is permanently saturated with water and has varying level of salinity.
