SUMMARY The « Marais Poitevin » is an ancient marine gulf, filled with recent alluvions. Dike-building has occasioned the differentiation of two areas : the « dried-up marsh » near the sea and the « wet marsh » in the inner part of the ancient gulf where several rivers couring from the environing plateaus converge. This wet marsh is affected every winter by scattering of floods. The marine deposits that have filled up the gulf almost exclusively consist of heavy clay (scrobicularia-clay). Upstream, after the retirement of the sea, a marshy vegetation of soft water has covered the heavy clay with a peat-layer of variable thickness. This peat disappears under fluvialile clays along the rivers, or under colluvial deposits in the valley of th...
