Estuaries & Wetlands  Our next section of the watershed unit is to study WHERE the runoff water meets the ocean. See YOUR notes!

What are the “wetlands”?  land area that is saturated with water, either permanently or seasonally with a distinct ecosystem.saturatedwater ecosystem  The water found in wetlands can be saltwater, freshwater, or brackishsaltwater freshwaterbrackish  Main wetland types include swamps, marshes, bogs and fens.swampsmarshes bogsfens

 Facts: ~ soil in the wetlands is called muck ~ swamp, marsh, bogs are all wetlands ~ Washington, DC is BUILT on a wetland ~ wetlands are home to many endangered animals and plants ~ 97% of water is salt water, only 3% is fresh water on Earth ~ water that is part salt and part fresh is BRACKISH KNOW ALL OF THESE
