How do wetland constraints affect ecosystem services?

Wetland constraints have a significant impact on ecosystem services due to their role in regulating water flow, filtering pollutants, and providing habitat for a diverse range of species. When wetlands are degraded or lost, these functions are compromised, leading to decreased water quality, increased flooding, and reduced biodiversity. This, in turn, affects the provision of ecosystem services such as clean water, flood control, and carbon sequestration. Effective wetland conservation and restoration efforts are crucial to maintaining the many benefits that wetlands provide to both the environment and human communities.
