Wetland has a strong function of regulating groundwater, which can effectively store water and resist flood peak; It can purify sewage and adjust regional microclimate; Wetlands are also important habitats for aquatic animals, amphibians, birds and other wild animals. Wetlands, forests and oceans are also called the three major ecosystems in the world, which have nurtured and enriched the global biodiversity and are known as the "kidney of the earth".
However, due to people reclaiming wetlands or changing their uses, the ecological environment has been seriously damaged. For example, the flood disaster is aggravated, the trend of drought is obvious, and the biodiversity is sharply reduced.
In order to protect wetlands, 18 countries signed an important wetland convention-the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance Especially as Waterfowl Habitat in Ramsar, Iran on February 2, 7 1, also known as the Ramsar Convention (hereinafter referred to as the Wetland Convention).
