The river has also been dammed[2] for irrigation. The dam has a height of 83m and a width of 287m and is constructed of an Earth-rock dam with central clay core. The dam holds 85 million m³ of water.[3]
Ecology
The Zola river is an important component of the ecosystem of the Lake Urmia Basin.[4] Lake Urmia is drying out and has taken on a red color due to phytoplankton in recent years.[5] The health of this river is a key indicator of the health of the whole basin and is therefore the subject of much study.[6]
