Popis: The expected global climatic changes in the environment may control the yield of the Nile and increase the occurrence of drought periods. Therefore developing other water resources, of which groundwater is the most important, for irrigation, domestic and industrial uses is necessary to meet Egypt's increasing water demands. Nowadays groundwater is widely used in Egypt and is becoming an integral part of the national policy. The groundwater development is controlled mainly by economic and quality considerations.
