Water Sources in the Al-Butnan Area in the Great Jamahiriya

Geographical Study

Abstract

The great Jamahiriya is given special importance to freshwater resources based on the development of the seawater desalination system, digging artesia, and completing the great industrial river project with that system that transports water from the heart of the desert to the coastal strip where the high-density population gatherings and it has realized early the importance of this resource Natural for its location within the dry and dry domain, it is naturally suffering from a shortage of water resources, due to the dry climate that is characterized by the level of weak and different precipitation, and besides this important supplier of fresh water, there were alternative solutions such as desalination of seawater by using advanced technology. Water resources are considered one of the most valuable natural resources in dry and dry areas worldwide. We find the Al-Butnan region falls within the dry climate with the characteristic of rain that is often exposed to great changes from the annual average of (106.6 mm/year),. The importance of this research is to study the geological and hydrological situation in the Al-Butnan region, identify the drainage systems for water basins, and identify their sources, in addition to determining the region's current and future water resources and determining the available ones.
