| Additional information: | The objective of the project is to enhance the resilience of the ecosystems and livelihoods in Lower Amudarya and Aral Sea Basin (LADAB) through land degradation neutrality (LDN) compatible integrated land-water management in the productive landscapes around PAs and KBAs/IBAs. The project structured within certain components and component 1 addresses unrationalized and unsustainable use of water resources, the negative impacts of which are exacerbated from climate change risks. The project will develop a collaborative framework for efficient water management involving multi-stakeholders' engagement, considering agriculture needs but also the necessary ecological flows needed for the preservation of lakes wetlands and riparian zones in Amudarya basin and delta. A key objective is developing a comprehensive hydrological model using the Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) system. The model requires robust hydrological, infrastructural, and water use data to optimize water allocation among different users. This assignment seeks an experienced hydrologist/hydraulic engineer to gather and organize this critical information. |
