Prediction of future drawdown of water levels of the Pleistocene aquifer system of Wadi El-Assiuti Area, Eastern Desert, Egypt, as a criterion for management and conservation

However, using empirical formulae and assumptions, the expected drop of piezometric levels of groundwater in the Pleistocene aquifer, as future scenarios, was predicted for 5, 10 and 20 years. These future scenarios reflected the urgent need for a policy or management scheme to decrease the severe drawdown of water level in this important developmental area.
