Chamiza Wetland

Chamiza Wetland (Spanish: Humedal de Chamiza) is a marine wetland in Reloncaví Sound in southern Chile.[1] The wetland lies around the outflow of Chamiza River east of the city of Puerto Montt and close to northernmost section of Carretera Austral.[1] The wetland has been the site of various studies of waders and marine invertebrates.[1] Urbanizations and dog attacks on birds have been identified as threats to the ecosystem of the wetland.[1]
