Water
Water regime dominated by rivers Alph and Trans
Increase in devastating floods in the Alph plain
No established system of water rights
Renewable water availability per capita: 1,600m3/year. (with population growth, this will fall below 1,000m3/capita (by 2040), even if water use remains constant)

10. Our case ‘Zanadu’ – climate
Wide range of climates:
sub-tropical zone in the south with highly seasonal rainfall
snow covered mountains in the north
semi-arid plateau in the west
High seasonal rainfall in summer, dry cool winter season
Climate change signals
Expected rise in temperature by 2°C by 2050
Unclear signals regarding precipitation
Increasing incidence of droughts through shortfall of rain season
More variable flows in river, lower late summer flows
Reduced groundwater recharge
Gradual submergence of Alph delta (sea level rise)
