Ramsar_Sites are designated wetlands recognized for their ecological importance and biodiversity. They are part of the Ramsar_Convention, an international treaty established in 1971 in Ramsar, Iran, aimed at conserving wetlands and promoting their sustainable use. These sites provide essential habitats for various species, including migratory birds, and help maintain water quality and flood control. Countries that sign the Ramsar_Convention commit to protecting these vital ecosystems. There are over 2,400 Ramsar Sites worldwide, covering diverse environments such as marshes, mangroves, and coral reefs. The designation helps raise awareness and encourages conservation efforts to safeguard these critical habitats.
