Swamp ecosystems are wetland areas characterized by the presence of waterlogged soil and a variety of plant species, including trees, shrubs, and grasses. These ecosystems are typically found in low-lying regions and can be freshwater or saltwater. Swamps play a crucial role in filtering pollutants, storing carbon, and providing habitat for diverse wildlife, including birds, amphibians, and insects. The water in swamps can be stagnant or slow-moving, creating a unique environment that supports a rich biodiversity. Common plants found in swamps include cypress trees, mangroves, and sedge. Additionally, swamps serve as important breeding grounds for many species, contributing to the overall health of the surrounding ecosystem.
