CONT

Marécage lacustrien : Ces marécages se trouvent le long du rivage d'étangs ou de lacs pérennes. La nappe phréatique reste élevée grâce au niveau de l'eau du lac, qui inonde parfois le marécage lacustrien pendant les crues. Un marais ou un fen peuvent se trouver entre le marécage lacustrien et les eaux libres.
