	Marshland Arabs of Iraq: Events: U.S. Institute of Peace
		However, while the marshlands have long been viewed as a problem area, Clark pointed out that it was not until after the Marsh Arabs participated in a rebellion against Saddam Hussein immediately after the Persian Gulf War that redeveloping the marshlands began in earnest.
		Building upon Clark's history of the marshlands and the Ma'dan, Brasington presented an overview of the geography and ecology of the marshlands.
		The destruction of the marshlands also has produced a significant humanitarian problem as there are currently more than 100,000 Ma'dan refugees who have fled to Iran and an estimated 500,000 Marsh Arabs refugees scattered around the globe overall.

	Japan scrubs Iraq marshland donor meeting - Boston.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-20)
		A donors conference to coordinate the revival of southern Iraq's once-lush marshlands has been canceled because of the ongoing stalemate in Baghdad over the country's constitution.
		The delay follows a UNEP announcement Wednesday that the marshlands have made a rapid recovery since being nearly decimated under the regime of Saddam Hussein.
		Among the challenges facing marshland restoration is balancing environmental factors with the economic needs of the people who live there, including demand for roads and electricity, Bisset said.

	Project examines possible recovery of Iraq marshland - 04/29/03
		Restoration of the marshlands and the culture it nurtured will involve a daunting mix of scientific and political hurdles.
		The marshlands of Mesopotamia, at the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, have long been revered for their unusual wetland ecology and for the 5,000-year-old culture of the Madan, or "Marsh Arabs."
		The marshlands may have been the inspiration for the biblical Garden of Eden, and the Madan are thought to descend from the Sumerians, who established humankind's first civilization.

		Parameters needed for the predictive model were gathered based on the physical configuration of the landfill and marshland as well as associated laboratory-derived data on the attenuation capacity of the marshland soil matrix.
		The model was adapted to the hydrologic characteristics of the marshland, emphasizing groundwater flow, dilution and the adsorption capacity of the organic soil.
		The surface water flow in the marshland was assumed to be at the marshland surface, i.e., only the groundwater flow in the organic soil layer was considered in this investigation.

	Marsh Arabs
		Description The idea of draining the marshlands of southern Iraq is not a new concept, and certainly not the first time the Tigris-Euphrates river system has been harnessed for man's use.
		As a result, the environmental effects are thought to be "irreversible with disastrous ecological, social and human consequences for the region." The sparse water remaining has contributed to the salinization of the land.
		The one piece of legislation applying to the marshlands situation is U.N. Resolution 688, passed April 6, 1991.

	Marshland: Records of Life on the Tantramar
		The nineteenth century agricultural landscape continued to be based on marshland but substantial improvements in drainage techniques and rising demand for marsh hay fostered expansion in this sector.
		Because the marshland slopes northwards away from the coastal margin (a product of centuries of tidal sediment deposition), the northernmost portion of the marsh towards Midgic and Jolicure is poorly-drained.
		Cutting through about 3 metres of peat moss, this canal progressively drained the marshland, expanding the available productive marshland, while nutrient-rich mud carried up the Tantramar River on the incoming tide was deposited in the smaller drainage ditches feeding the main canal.

	Calculated Risk: A Recovery Built on a Marshland of Debt?
		These are the components that contribute to the "recovery built on a marshland of debt".
