Water Resources - Total Exploitable

Exploitable water resources (Billion cubic meters) (also called manageable water resources or water development potential) correspond to the water resources considered to be available for development under specific economic and environmental conditions. The computation of exploitable water resources considers factors such as dependability of the flow, extractable groundwater, and minimum flow required for non-consumptive use. It may be subdivided in three subcomponents: regular surface water, irregular surface water, and regular groundwater.
