1 If using the British Imperial System, divide the total weight by 112. 2  This is a long CWT and is the basis for the long ton, or 2,240 pounds (112 pounds x 20 long CWT). 3  In places where both measurements are sometimes used, such as parts of Canada, the 100-lb.4  CWT is commonly called a short CWT.n the U.S, one CWT is equal to 100 pounds; in the UK, a CWT is known as a long hundredweight and weighs 112 pounds. The CWT system originated in Europe centuries ago; it's still in use in many industries, including farming and transportation, because it works.
Lagoons are shallow bodies of water that gets separated from larger water bodies due to the formation of reefs or barrier islands. There are mainly two types of lagoons:
Wetlands are areas of land that are covered with fresh water or saltwater and feature species adapted to life in a saturated environment. They are shallow and allow the growth of rooted or anchored plants such as water lilies but also free floating plants like duckweed.etlands represent the meeting of two habitats (land and water) and are therefore some of the most biodiverse areas in the world (some say more than rainforests) with many land and water species, and some that are unique only to the wetlands.
