Wetlands are vital for human survival. They are among the world's
most productive environments as they are cradles of biological
diversity that provide the water and productivity upon which
countless species of plants and animals depend for survival.
Wetlands provide habitat for thousands of species of aquatic and
terrestrial plants and animals as well as a number of societal
benefits such as food and habitat for fish and wildlife, water
quality improvement, flood storage, shoreline erosion control,
economically beneficial natural products for human use, and
opportunities for recreation, education, and research. According to
the Federal Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Wetlands,
more than one-third of the United States' threatened and endangered
species live only in wetlands, and nearly half use wetlands at some
point in their lives. This book offers a comprehensive look at the
importance of wetland conservation, its challenges, and future
aspects. The book highlights the challenges of wetland conservation
and current scenarios of existing wetlands; the importance of the
inland wetland and its conservation is particularly highlighted as
it is critical and very important in the current existing wetland
scenario. This book is critical for industries, academics, research
scholars, and environmental consultants who are practicing wetland
management.
