This chapter has examined how dammingDam influencesWetland on river flow and, in turn, how these affect hydrology and health of floodplain wetlandFloodplain wetlands. Review works indicate that damming on river has growingly been appearing as a major global concern. Theoretical interplay among damDam-river-wetlandWetland has been explored through some specific mechanisms like seepageSeepage, flooding, groundwaterGroundwater support, tie-channelTie-channel connection, etc. In order to explore this relation, wetlandWetland-dominated Atreyee RiverAtreyee River basin spanning between India and Bangladesh was selected, as it underwent damming in 2012, leading to significant hydrological medications in river and riparian systems.
