Salt marshes refer to a coastal ecosystem within the top of coastline seashore. The coastal ecosystem is between land and seawater or salt water that are usually flooded by the tides. The coast wetlands are considered marshy due to the presence of the deep mud and peat.

Salt marshes are dominated by some plants which include grasses, shrubs, and herbs: the plants found within the coastal ecosystem are also classified as salt-tolerant plants.

The salt-tolerant plants are so important to the stability of salt marshes, particularly in binding sediments. The salt marshes also play a big role in the aquatic food web and the supply of major nutrients to the coastal waters.

Salt marshes provide support for terrestrial animals, including the protection of animals within the coastal ecosystem.

Salt marches can be found within the middle to high latitudes and it occurs globally. They can be found in estuaries and almost on every coast in the United States and can be found mostly along the Gulf coast.
