Water level and flow direction are dependent on weirs here. However, it is often referred to as bifurcation. Because here but shares no flow, but drains the predominantly stagnant water of a ditch in two directions, the term Pseudobifurkation is actually correct. The western part of Ziese was once the lower reaches of the Hans Haeger Bach. Its headwaters originate in Gross Kiesow and unite with Hans Hagen.
