الملخص EN

The research's purpose is to define the effects of water sources on Euphrates water levels within the area starting from Hsaiba town and Qaem at Iraqi-Syrian borders, passing through Anbar governorate till south of Abo-Gareeb town where Euphrates runs in regional depression resulted from structural movements within this area .This depression resulted from mechanical and chemical erosion due to the running of Euphrates water for long years.

Many valleys (Al-Qaem, Al-Maniei, Al-Bateekha, Zagdan, Al-Fahami, Al-Akhadhar , Khabaz, Al-Maraj, Haqlan, Horan, Al-Mohammadi) join Euphrates in Iraqi territory from its borders until it arrives at the Sedimentary Plain where Euphrates becomes draining stream of these valleys' water in the rain season.

This research concluded that this area's drainages have never been maintained since taking them from the implementing company which caused big damage that led to breakdown such projects raising groundwater level.

However, the area which was occupied by ISIS is mostly mined and is forbidden for civilians and to survey such area, a big demining campaign is needed to allow us define and fix the damage.

So Big treatment procedures are needed.
