Online resources: Summary: Presents the current state of the water resources situation in the Gaza Strip and outlines some simple, sustainable paradigms for controlling the runoff at source so that more of it could be channelled towards groundwater recharge, the increased urbanisation notwithstanding. Argues that unless these steps are taken and enshrined in the planning policy of the Gaza Strip, the problem could get worse. [Taken from paper abstract].
