Salt Marshes and Mangroves

Question 5 • FL-2001340-Environmental Science B-CR

Explain what is being done to restore salt marsh habitats.

Answer

Answer:

Some salt marshes that were converted to other human uses are being restored by converting landfills back to marshland. In other cases, land that was not a salt marsh is being converted into a salt marsh. In areas where salt marshes have degraded, but were not completely removed, tide flows are being restored so that the natural salt marsh will restore itself.
