What is a Riparian Area?

Riparian areas are ecosystems adjacent to streams, rivers, wetland and lakes where soils and vegetation are strongly influenced by water. They contribute shade, food and shelter for aquatic organisms and are home to many animals the move between land and water such as insects, amphibians and waterfowl. Riparian areas act as a natural sponge soaking up water as it runs off the land, slowly releasing water back into the stream.
