Zeroud Oued (واد زرود) is a stream in central Tunisia at Latitude, it flows via Sebkhet Cherita Lake, into the Mediterranean Sea at the Gulf of Hammamet. Its average course is forty kilometers even if the maximum length of its bed reaches 150 kilometers. It collects its water basin upstream by a series of wadis draining the Nara region and , all being retained by the dam , located about 45 kilometers southwest of Kairouan. Downstream of the dam, a series of wadis flow into the Wadi Zeroud, flowing to a zone located about ten kilometers south-east of Kairouan where it ceases to be a single wadi and splits into several parts some of which joined the sebkha Kelbia.

  • وادي زرود هو أحد أهم الأودية بالوسط التونسي وينبع من السفح الجنوبي ويخترق سهولا طميية عديدة حتى يصل سهل القيروان. وهو معروف بجفافه خلال أغلب فترات السنة وقوته خلال الفيضانات إذ قد يصل منسوبه إلى 2400 صم مكعب/ثانية. أقيم عليه سد سيدي سعد لتغذية الطبقة المائية واستغلاله في الفلاحة السقوية ولكن خاصة لحماية المنطقة من فيضاناته. * يبلغ حوض واد زرود 5500كم مربع من بينها 3500 كم مربع لوادي الحطب الذي يشكل أحد فروعه الأساسية.

  • El oued Zeroud és un riu de Tunísia, majoritariamente a la governació de Kairuan, que tot i ser el segon més important de Tunísia és sec bona part de l'any. Es tracta més que d'un riu d'una sèrie d'oueds que drenen la regió del Djebel Nara i Djebel Tazza i que són controlats actualment per l'embassament de Sidi Saad a uns 45 km al sud-oest de Kairuan. El principal oued arriba del Djebel Lasouda. En tot aquesta zona una sèrie d'oueds s'ajunten amb l'oued Zeroud que corre durant uns 40 km entre l'embassament i una zona a un 10 km al sud-est de Kairuan on deixa de ser estrictament un riu i es formen les avingudes que recullen les aigües i que la porten fins a Sussa, on desaigua la principal. El seu curs és d'uns 40 km del que seria un riu i 150 km en el conjunt. La pluviometria reduïda de la regió fa que no porti aigua a l'estiu però produeix inundacions a la tardor, quan la pluja cau en poc temps. La construcció de l'embassament ha posat en regadiu la zona i ha evitat inundacions, però ha reduït l'aigua de les napes freàtiques que estan sobreexplotades. (ca)

The rainfall reduced the region led to the near-absence of water in summer but also to floods in autumn, when rain falls during a short period of time. Construction of the dam has allowed the irrigation of farmland and helped prevent flooding, but, however, reduced the level of groundwater also overexploited. During Roman times the area was intensely farmed. (en)
