• Endorheic basinRelated: Wetlands form where internal drainage concentrates water in low-lying parts of a basin.

• Water tableRelated: A shallow water table helps sustain many wetlands.

• Riparian zoneCompared with: Wetlands can overlap riparian zones, but riparian land need not meet wetland criteria.

• Wading birdRelated: Wetlands provide the shallow water and feeding grounds that support many wading birds.

• Game birdRelated: Wetlands sustain many waterfowl species that are hunted as game birds.

• LimnologyBroader topic: Wetlands are inland aquatic systems whose hydrology and ecology fall within limnological inquiry.

• Atlantic Coastal PlainNarrower topic: The plain supports extensive marshes and swamps that store water and provide habitat.

• ChinampaNarrower topic: Chinampas depend on and modify wetland environments.

• Lake TexcocoNarrower topic: Restoration efforts seek to recover wetland habitat once sustained by the lake.

• Wildlife habitatBroader topic: Water levels and wet soils create distinctive habitat conditions.

• Yalu RiverNarrower topic: Wetlands in the lower Yalu basin provide habitat shaped by seasonal river flows.

• Arctic methane emissionsNarrower topic: Waterlogged Arctic soils commonly provide the oxygen-poor conditions that support methane production.

• BogNarrower topic: Bogs are one kind of wetland, distinguished by peat accumulation and precipitation-fed water.

• Poyang LakeNarrower topic: Seasonally exposed mudflats and flooded grasslands make the lake a vast wetland.

• CaimanNarrower topic: Wetlands provide the aquatic and nesting habitats on which caiman populations depend.

• MarshNarrower topic: Marshes are one wetland type, distinguished by herbaceous vegetation.

• CyperaceaeNarrower topic: Many sedges are defining plants of wetlands, where they influence habitat structure.

• Littoral zoneCompared with: Some littoral margins grade into wetlands, but the terms describe different ecological settings.

• SandpiperRelated: Wetlands provide many sandpipers with feeding, resting, and breeding habitat.

• Siberian craneRelated: Marshes and shallow waters supply the crane’s food and nesting habitat.

• Tonlé SapNarrower topic: Seasonal inundation creates extensive wetland habitat around the lake.

• WaterbirdNarrower topic: Wetlands provide feeding and nesting habitat for many waterbirds.

• HeronRelated: Wetlands supply the shallow-water feeding grounds and nesting habitat used by many herons.

• JuncaceaeRelated: Many Juncaceae species are characteristic plants of marshes, fens, and other wetlands.

• Lake UrmiaNarrower topic: Lake Urmia’s surrounding wetlands depend on water levels and inflows.

• Oxbow lakeNarrower topic: Many oxbow lakes develop into wetland habitats as they become shallower.

• SalixRelated: Many willows thrive in wet soils and shape the edges of wetlands.

• Waterfowl migrationRelated: Wetlands supply food, shelter, and breeding habitat along migration routes.

• IsoetesRelated: Seasonal wetlands provide habitat for many amphibious quillwort species.

• Senegal RiverNarrower topic: River floods sustain wetlands that provide habitat and support local livelihoods.

• CarexRelated: Many Carex species are prominent plants in wetland vegetation.

• CraneRelated: Wetlands provide feeding and nesting habitat for many crane species.

• Greylag gooseRelated: Wetlands provide greylags with nesting, roosting, and refuge sites.

• Kaziranga National ParkNarrower topic: Lakes, marshes, and swamps provide habitat within the park.

• La Pampa ProvinceRelated: River flow changes have affected wetlands in the province’s western areas.

• GrebeRelated: Many grebes depend on wetlands for nesting, feeding, and shelter.

• Intracoastal WaterwayRelated: Many sections pass through wetlands that can be affected by channel construction and traffic.

• Kagera RiverBroader topic: Wetlands along the river store water and support biodiversity, but face pressure from land use.

• Liao RiverNarrower topic: Wetlands near the Liao’s mouth support biodiversity and buffer coastal flooding.
