Australia’s amazing wetlands

Department of the Environment and Energy, 2017

About the brochure

Wetlands are found throughout Australia, from the reefs surrounding our coastline, to the rivers and floodplains that criss-cross the country, from lakes and dams in rural areas to constructed wetlands in the suburbs.

Wetlands are valuable for the environment, food production, our culture and recreation. You can learn more about Australia’s wetlands and their wise use in the brochure Australia's amazing wetlands
