Control and Management Study of Jordan's Water Resources
The paper addresses the main options to reduce the long-term water gap and the specific projects for future pursuit. Water imports from areas outside Jordan by land and/or sea and desalination of seawater using single seashore plants or the intersea project are the main options for supplementing the available conventional water in Jordan. The assessment of the different potential options to meet the future demand considered the technical and economic aspects, the environmental impacts, and the socio-economic and political implications. Seawater desalination seems to be the most suitable development option according to the prevailing conditions and available data.
