Hanbook for hydrometeorological observations
The National water resources are limited & unevenly distributed resulting in seasonal abundance, and even devastating floods in some areas, while large tracts in other regions are persistently drought affected. The above situations have been compounded with the apprehended Climate change which calls for data collection on large scale to carryout climate change studies to help find possible sustainable solutions. This erratic occurrence necessitates precise hydrological observations in rivers for the optimum planning of water resources projects and their subsequent operations.
