A master's thesis in the College of Science at the University of Basrah discussed the evaluation of water quality in the central part of the Shatt al-Arab during the highest and lowest tides using the Canadian guide.
The researcher Russell Zaid Khalaf's thesis included the importance of evaluating the quality of the waters of the Shatt al-Arab with the tidal phenomena.
The thesis aims to identify the changes that occur as a result of drainage and the reduction of river water levels and their impact on the quality of Shatt al-Arab water.
The thesis recommended the importance of spreading environmental awareness, not dumping waste and waste water, establishing waste water treatment units, and following laws and regulations to prevent the dumping of waste.
