Description / Abstract

Transboundary aquifer or transboundary aquifer system means respectively, an aquifer or aquifer system, part of which are situated in different States. The international aspect of a transboundary aquifer makes its management more complex than in a case of an aquifer located within the State borders. An informed and sustainable management of commonly shared aquifer asks for adequate knowledge of its characteristics, present state and trends. In order to acquire this knowledge, regular monitoring and assessment of the transboundary aquifer need to be performed. The document describes a methodology for multidisciplinary assessment of transboundary aquifers and gives the guidelines for its implementation.
