Abstract

Wetland ecosystems account for about six percent of the global land area and are among the most threatened of all environmental resources. The wetlands found in temperate climate zones in developed economies have long suffered significant losses and continue to face an on-going conversion threat from industrial, agricultural and residential developments, as well as from hydrological perturbation, pollution and pollution-related effects (Turner, 1991).
