Description: The Tidewater region is an area of land that is influenced by tides, where seawater regularly floods and recedes. These zones are typically found along coastlines, where water levels fluctuate due to the gravitational pull of the moon and sun. The main characteristics of these regions include rich biodiversity, as they host a variety of ecosystems such as marshes, estuaries, and mangroves. The alternation between saltwater and air creates a unique environment that supports a wide range of plant and animal species adapted to changing conditions. Additionally, tidal water regions are crucial for coastal protection, acting as natural barriers against erosion and storms. Their relevance extends beyond biodiversity, as they are also important for scientific research and environmental education, providing a natural laboratory to study the effects of tides and climate change on coastal ecosystems.
