ملخص
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region suffers from low
precipitation and high evaporation. Coastal areas of the MENA region are
usually densely populated; hence, the coastal aquifers are easily
over-exploited beyond their safe yield, and seawater intrusion and
aquifer salinization have been caused by the groundwater-level declines.
Four studies in MENA coastal aquifers, on seawater intrusion modeling
and aquifer recharge and salinization using isotopes, have been brought
together in a topical collection and are discussed in this essay. A
brief overview is given of managed aquifer recharge as an effective
method to combat groundwater-level decline, seawater intrusion and
aquifer salinization in MENA counties.
