Contradiction swamp/marsh

I am not a native speaker so I don't know which is which from my own common knowledge, but the marsh page says that swamps are deeper and wetter and the shrub swamp page says that shrub swamps are to wet for hardwood yet not deep and wet enough to become marshes. Does anyone know what the true relation between the three is? --Fransbal (talk) 18:02, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

From the American Heritage Dictionary:

SWAMP: A seasonally flooded bottomland with more woody plants than a marsh and better drainage than a bog.

MARSH: An area of soft, wet, low-lying land, characterized by grassy vegetation and often forming a transition zone between water and land.
