Asian Development Bank | September 2014
Abstract
The report provides the guidance, methods, data, and analyses needed to assess water availability and needs in micro watersheds.
Water availability has a tremendous impact on water resources development and socioeconomic sustainability, particularly in arid and semiarid areas. A thorough assessment of water availability and demand is essential in preparing any water resources development and management plan. In fact, if water is to be managed in a sustainable way planners and managers must know how much there is and how much of it is needed, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions.
