Northern European LowlandsThe Northern European Lowlands are a geomorphological region in Europe. They consist of the low plains between the Central European Highlands to the south and the North Sea and the Baltic Sea to the north; their elevation is between 0 and 200m. While mostly used as farmland, the region also contains bogs, heath, and lakes. On the North Sea coast, one finds marshes and the Wadden Sea, a large tidal area. Politically, the Northern European Lowlands are shared among Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, and Poland. Major rivers are, from west to east, Rhine, Ems, Weser, Elbe, Oder, and Vistula.
