Tiber Basin

The Tiber Basin is the drainage area surrounding the Tiber River, mainly in central Italy, including Rome. It encompasses the land where rain and streams collect, flowing into the Tiber River and ultimately reaching the Tyrrhenian Sea. This basin covers diverse landscapes like plains, hills, and urban zones, shaping the region’s agriculture, water supply, and ecosystems. Managing this basin involves controlling flooding, maintaining water quality, and ensuring sustainable use of resources, making it vital for the environmental and economic health of the area.
