Wet habitats generally occurring between uplands and deepwater areas are considered wetlands. They are commonly referred to by a host of terms based on their location and characteristics, such as salt marsh, total marsh, wet meadow, cedar swamp, and hardwood swamp. These areas are important natural resources with numerous values, e.g. fish and wildlife habitat, flood protection, erosion control, and water faulty maintenance.
