  • Cover photo description:
  • Freshwater wetlands are areas of land that are covered with fresh water. Adirondack wetlands, like other freshwater wetlands, feature species adapted to life in a saturated environment. Wetlands are shallow; water depth is below six feet. This allows growth of rooted or anchored plants, such as water lilies, and also free floating plants without attachment to the bottom, like duckweed. Wetlands represent a transition between two habitats land and water and are therefore some of the most biodiverse areas in the world with many land and water species. As a result, Adirondack wetlands, like other wetlands, are of major significance to scores of plant and animal species. In addition, wetlands act as a filter for pollution and excess sediment. There are four basic types of freshwater wetlands in the Adirondacks: Bog, Swamp, Fen and Marsh.
