Map of the Biome

Location Freshwater Wetlands are found all over the world because they are freshwater sources like ponds, marshes, and bogs.

Physical Characteristics Salinity- less than 1% in order to support plant life Temperature- ranges year-round from 0 to 22 degrees C., but is always warmest at the top of the water. Depth- generally shallower than lakes, can range from puddles to hectares Water flow- wetlands are standing water so there is no water flow

Base of the food web Wetlands support a wide variety of plant and animal life. Lilies, cattails, Cyprus, and gum are some plant species that grow there and make up the base of the food web.

Animal life Some animals that are supported by the freshwater wetlands ecosystem are amphibians, birds, reptiles, and other furry animals.

Interesting Information Freshwater Wetlands have an extremely high diversity of plant and animal life. They are a transition between aquatic and terrestrial biomes, making them a large sink and exporting materials.
