SourcesTo get primary water data, especially in a world scale, isn't an ease task. One river and many thirsty partners, water that flows through (inflows) and water that is local, the same water can be withdrawal more then once, changing rates in rain and evaporation, uncapturable flush flows, the huge amount that is lost in the way to consumption and fresh water pollution are some of the difficulties. Besides, water science methods, parameters and terminology had not been unified yet (UN's commission is working on this just now), and data are not fully accurate yet and many times sources differ. Water data was withdrawal from U.S. Geological Survey and, most of it, from the works of P.H. Gleick, A. Shiklomanov, J. Niemczynowicz and Ben Dziegielewski, who genteelly help me on this. Hope you like, even if you are from Northern Africa or Near East. Best, Sik
