This insightful volume adopts a holistic approach to examine the rich biodiversity, water and soil quality, and the community structures that sustain these unique environments. The book, split into four sections, delves into various ecosystem services provided by wetlands, including groundwater recharge, nutrient cycling, water and wastewater treatment, and their cultural, recreational, and tourism values. Authored by experts in the field, the chapters follow a clear structure, with step-by-step advanced monitoring techniques to address wetlands' significant role in climate change mitigation and adaptation. Taking into account the contribution of wetlands towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the book explores innovative biodiversity assessment techniques, the impact of environmental stressors, and the critical roles of flora, fauna, and migratory birds in maintaining wetland ecological health. With case studies illustrating practical applications, this is an indispensable resource for students of environmental science, conservationists, and researchers, offering actionable insights and recommendations for safeguarding these critical ecosystems.Includes comprehensive overview of wetland biodiversity, encompassing flora and faunaOffers in-depth exploration of ecosystem services, such as groundwater recharge, nutrient cycling, and cultural valuesCovers advanced monitoring techniques using remote sensing and GIS applications with real-life case studies and step-by-step analyses
