Before human intervention in the hydraulic system, the upstream area of \u200b\u200bthe marshes was periodically flooded during floods. Conversely, during drought periods, the area of \u200b\u200bthe flooded areas decreased, causing a succession in the behavior of wetlands, which generally helped in the development of biodiversity and the improvement of environmental conditions to the maximum extent: the variation of flood extension and water depth creates favorable conditions for plants and animals. Moreover, there are no dams and barriers made by man under natural conditions. Consequently, there was less real constraint on the extent of inundation, except for natural levees and gradual changes in terrain elevation. The peaks of large flows entering these wetlands and flooding were naturally mitigated as the water spread across the floodplains. The large volumes of water moving through the wetlands helped maintain a high level of connectivity between the marshes and the various rivers.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flood Dynamics in the Marshes &#8211; Natural Conditions Zaid Hakim Jiyad Under the supervision of Lect.
