Australian National Wetlands Inventory

The Australian National Wetlands Inventory (ANWI) is a comprehensive database that documents and maps wetlands across Australia. Wetlands are vital ecosystems that support diverse plants and animals, provide flood control, and improve water quality. The inventory helps researchers, policymakers, and conservationists understand the distribution and condition of these areas, aiding in effective management and protection efforts. By promoting the significance of wetlands, ANWI supports biodiversity and sustainable development, ensuring that these essential habitats are preserved for future generations.
