Description

Effective integrated water resources management requires a deep understanding of both blue and green water resources. This academic work examines the spatial and temporal distribution of these resources within a river basin, focusing on the interdependencies that define their use. Using the Pangani River Basin in Eastern Africa as a primary case study, the text addresses the challenges of managing water in a heterogeneous, highly utilized, and data-scarce environment in semi-arid Africa. The research highlights how upper landscapes in sub-Saharan Africa often rely on rainfed and supplementary irrigated agriculture, which depend on green water resources. In contrast, downstream blue water uses are primarily concentrated in river channels for hydropower and environmental needs. As population growth drives increased demands for food and energy, understanding these water dependencies becomes essential for sustainable management. This publication serves as a vital resource for those studying the complexities of water scarcity and resource allocation in developing regions.

Key Features
