Wetlands• Characteristic hydric soil and hydrophytic vegetation as
signs of frequent surface saturation or inundation.
• Climate determines the balance of precipitation and evapotranspiration. (E.g., much less precipitation is required for tundra wetlands than that for a tropical savanna wetland.)
Human Impacts on Groundwaters; Streams and Wetlands
• Groundwater or surface pumping:– agriculture – industry – drinking waters.
• Clearing riparian forests & wetlands• Draining and filling for “development”.• Damming and flooding• Diversion channels for water supply.
Levee
Arkansas River (?)
Vanishing Florida Wetlands
Wetland loss from 1780 to1990.70% Riparian Forest lost in USA.
Worldwide estimates are >50%; half due to agriculture.
