If I remember correctly, the terrain has no affect and I would even go so far as to say that the terrain for the given province is ignored and is treated like plains even if it was tagged as swamp or waste in the map file.

Take that with a grain of salt. A lot of time and several patches have passed since I last tested it.

Just to clarify, this is only in regard to resources and pop, a swamp's still a swamp in terms of combat penalties and army movement, IIRC.
