Resilience in the Limpopo Basin : The potential role of the transboundary Raotswa aquifer - Final draft

As complementary report of the baseline report, this report focus on the hydrogeological assessment of the Ramotswa Transboundary Aquifer and covers only aspects related to the biophysical conditions of the aquifer which is a karstic dolomit aquife straddling the international border between Botswana and South Africa. The assessment is based on existing data and field data collected (including Airborne Electro-Magnetic survey) during the period September 2015 –November 2016. The technical knowledge developed in the report will be used as based for developing tools for harmonized management and fostering crossborder dialogue in order to help building the joint Strategic Action Programme which will provide, not exclusively, guidelines for better monitoring and future assessment of the aquifer.
