Accepted Answer

Wetlands and riparian ecosystems have been heavily impacted by humans through conversion to agricultural land, development, and water management practices. They are also highly vulnerable to pollution and invasive species introduced by human activity. The other ecosystems listed may have also been impacted by humans, but not to the same extent as wetlands and riparian areas.
