Classification of The Key Functional Diversity of the Marshes of Southern Iraq Marshes

Southern Iraq's marshes, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site 'The Ahwar of Southern Iraq,' exhibit unique functional diversity that distinguishes them globally. This study classifies their key functions and assesses how they vary due to environmental influences, providing a framework for rehabilitation efforts. The research combines ecological analysis with functional diversity metrics to map marshland dynamics, offering critical insights for conservation strategies.
