Swamps are a worldwide phenomenon and you can see incredible swamp-lands in a number of states in the U.S. However, Louisiana swamps are worth seeing. They offer a unique environment that can be seen no where else. Swamps exist across every continent except Antarctica.
Louisiana land is washing away, due to erosion caused by the building of levees, drilling for oil and dredging canals, at the rate of a football field every hour. Louisiana’s wetlands too 7,000 years to form through a process called accretion in which the Mississippi River Basin flooded, depositing sediment and building land. Louisiana has the longest coastline of any U.S. state because of bays and sounds.
A swamp is an area that hold water and supports woody vegetation, while a marsh is an area that hold water but supports only non-woody, soft, green vegetation.
