Arkansas Wetland Planning Regions
For the purposes of wetland classification and description, we use five major Wetland Planning Regions that are designated to reflect major variations in climate, geology, topography, soils, and vegetation within the state. Many wetland types are restricted to one or two of these regions. Many others occur in multiple regions, but may support somewhat different groups of plants and animals in each region. The five Wetland Planning Regions are listed below, and shown on the state map. Link to a region on the list, or on the map, to learn more about it and to find links to major wetland types that occur there.

  • Coastal Plain
  • Arkansas River Valley
