UNFCCC Annex I countries held a 20% share in world population,
produced 57% of the world’s Gross Domestic Product based on
Purchasing Power Parity (GDPPPP) and accounted for 46% of glo-

layer 1 which is the upper, unconfined aquifer and layer 5,
the deeper, main aquifer in the area. For the current climate
