dc.description.abstract | Studies show that Sudan is facing water stress with a water availability of 1500 m3 /capita/annum. The situation is complicated due to the fact that most of the surface and ground water resources of the country are shared with the neighbouring countries. The paper recommends some adaptation measures to cope with the impacts of drought and climate change such as water harvesting, supplementary irrigation, and the use of improved irrigation techniques. Climate Change is likely to speed up the global hydrologic cycle, and lead to increased incidence of both floods and droughts. | en |
