| Summary: | This book comprises two distinct
elements. The first, and major, part of the book (chapters
1-3) is a unique and essential compilation of technical
information and data on the entire Niger River system. It
presents a comprehensive overview of the physical
environment and hydrological functions of the watershed,
thus providing the necessary background for examination of
the challenges of resource management and development
potential. The second part of the book (chapter 4) presents
the fundamental challenges that the nine countries1 of the
Basin face and are now addressing. |
