Dr. Ahmed Khater, director of the Groundwater Research Institute at the Nile Barrage, finds it ironic that in a desert region like the Middle East, petroleum geology is much better understood than subsurface hydrology."But water is what makes our life possible here, and we must use it wisely," he says.He cites the experience of President Nasser's "New Valley" project in the 1960's, which proposed a massive resettlement of Nile Valley farmers to the western oases.It was a failure.
"These isotope studies hold the promise of learning more about what is really our most precious asset,water, not oil," he says.Nasser, he notes, got the New Valley project's motto wrong."He said, ,When settlers come, then we will find water,'" says Khater.
Water was considered as one of the special issues of the Science Year 2007, which focused, in general, on "Integrated Water Resources Management" IWRM, one of the major questions of Egypt. The activities of the German - Egyptian Water-Group within the framework Year of Science and Technology 2007 intended to intensify and broaden the foundations of scientific cooperation in academic research as well as in professional academic and practical training between Egyptian and German universities and research institutions. Institutional cooperation in joint topics in the field of water research was therefore be intensified and focused on maintaining these bilateral scientific collaborations and the exchange of ideas.
