List of Ramsar wetlands of Thailand

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list of Ramsar wetlands of Thailand comprises Thai wetlands deemed to be of "international importance" under the Ramsar Convention. For a full list of all Ramsar sites worldwide, see the Ramsar list of wetlands of international importance.

As of 2019 there are 14 Ramsar sites in Thailand, totalling 399,714 hectares.[1]

According to WWF, wetlands are one of the most threatened of all ecosystems, because of progressive loss of vegetation, salinization, excessive inundation, water pollution, invasive species, development, and road building.[citation needed]
