This educational wall chart explains how wetlands function as natural purification systems and why they are essential environmental ecosystems. It begins by defining wetlands, including swamps, marshes, bogs, and sponges, and explains how water saturated soils support plants and wildlife that are specially adapted to these conditions. The chart clearly shows how wetlands act as natural filters by trapping sediments and improving water quality.

Key sections focus on wetland vegetation and aquatic ecosystems. Illustrated diagrams show how plants, microorganisms, insects, birds, amphibians, and fish interact within wetlands to recycle nutrients and maintain ecological balance. The wall chart also explains the importance of wetlands in preventing flooding, supporting biodiversity, and protecting water resources.

Additional sections explore the relationship between people and wetlands, including traditional uses such as grazing, fishing, and harvesting reeds. Human impact is addressed through examples of urbanisation encroaching on wetlands, highlighting environmental risks. The chart includes a step by step visual guide for making a wetland model to demonstrate water purification in practice. This wall chart also works well as a poster for classrooms, laboratories, and environmental education spaces.

Our wallcharts are engineered for durability and educational impact, designed to withstand the rigors of both classroom and home environments.
