Notes
This report on ephemeral rivers is a conclusion of a research project conducted by the Environmental Policy and Society (EPOS), Linköping University, Sweden. It attempts to link land and water characteristics in dry tropical river basins with appropriate water management approaches. Various hydrological processes are reviewed and discussed, some methods to measure water flows are outlined, examples are given of runoff collection techniques, and alternative allocation models and their institutional requirements are discussed. Many examples of water management are provided, both from today's practices and from past civilizations.
