River Ecosystems
A river ecosystem includes such elements as the flowing water; the river bed and shoreline; the air above them; and various forms of life.
Animals are important members of an ecosystem. They benefit from it and contribute to its well-being.

Oceans cover almost 3/4 of the Earth's surface and contain roughly 97% of the Earth's water supply.
The Earth's oceans are all connected to one another. There are five oceans: the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic, and Southern. There are also many seas (smaller branches of an ocean); seas are partly enclosed by land.

Freshwater Ecosystem
Streams are channels of flowing water that are smaller in size than rivers. These ecosystems include various communities of plant and animal species.
Streams can be formed from rainfall, snowmelt or natural springs. Some streams originate from wetlands.

River EcosystemsPond EcosystemsA pond is a body of water shallow enough to support rooted plants. Many times plants grow all the way across a shallow pond.
There is little wave action and the bottom is usually covered with mud.
Plants can, and often do, grow along the pond edge.
In really cold places, the entire pond can freeze solid.

Let’s read more…
Freshwater marshes are a type of wetland that is crowded with both animal and plant life.
Freshwater marshes are usually low-lying, open areas located near creeks, streams, rivers and lakes, where water flows into the marsh.
Animals living in the water include shrimp, crab, tadpoles, and fish.
Animals living at the surface of the water include frogs, turtles, and beavers.
Other animals live above the water, like birds and insects.

River EcosystemsSwamp Ecosystems
Swamps are warm, wet areas that are full of both animal and plant life; the water-logged land in swamps is often heavily forested, with trees.
Some animals live in the low-oxygen water (some fish, crayfish, shrimp, tadpoles, insect larvae).
some animals live at the surface of the
water (like alligators, caiman, nutria).
some animals live above the water (like birds, insects, frogs)
and other animals live in the spongy
areas of land surrounding the
swamp (like raccoons, deer,
earthworms).
