Emersed refers to aquatic plants that have been grown above water. Sumbersed refers to plants that have been grown below water. These terms are important because aquatic plants look totally different when grown under water or above water.

Nearly all true aquatic plants (plants that can survive underwater permanently) can be grown emersed, but not all plants growing above water can be grown permanently below water
