  • Time Needed to Assess Environmental Impact of Water Shortage. Case Study: Jerash Governorate / Jordan
    IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) e-ISSN: 2319-2402,p- ISSN: 2319-2399.Volume 10, Issue 7 Ver. III (July 2016), PP 58-63 www.iosrjournals.org Time needed to assess environmental impact of water shortage. case study: Jerash governorate / Jordan . Eham S. Al-Ajlouni Public Health Department, Health Sciences College, Saudi Electronic University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Abstract:Time needed to measure environmental impact varies according to the field (economic, financial, health, education, social, ..) and to the subject (project, policy, disease, program, ..) . The aim of this work was determining time duration needed to assess environmental impact of water shortage. Water share in Jerash governorate is only 71 litres per day per person, which is very low. So, cluster survey was applied, official records during 2000 – 2011 were reviewed and drinking water samples were analyzed. Water analysis data showed slight or no impact on ammonia, fluoride, and lead levels in water; and on pH and salinity of water; but there was high level of nitrate in water. Furthermore, national reports showed increased level of salinity of soil, however data of Total Dissolved Solids and pH of soil were officially not available. It was concluded that to show the negative impacts of water shortage on water quality and soil, time duration should be beyond 20 years. Moreover, salinity of soil could be indirectly affected by water shortage through over pumping and pollution, but mainly affected by agricultural practices and climate. Keywords:Environmental impact assessment; Falkenmark indicator; Jerash governorate; Time duration ;Water shortage. I. Introduction Duration of time frame to show positive or negative effects of a treatment, a project, a program, or a policy, is varied.

  • Chapter IV: the Implications of the Crisis on Host Communities in Irbid
    Chapter IV The Implications of the Crisis on Host Communities in Irbid and Mafraq – A Socio-Economic Perspective With the beginning of the first quarter of 2011, Syrian refugees poured into Jordan, fleeing the instability of their country in the wake of the Arab Spring. Throughout the two years that followed, their numbers doubled and had a clear impact on the bor- dering governorates, namely Mafraq and Irbid, which share a border with Syria ex- tending some 375 kilometers and which host the largest portion of refugees. Official statistics estimated that at the end of 2013 there were around 600,000 refugees, of whom 170,881 and 124,624 were hosted by the local communities of Mafraq and Ir- bid, respectively. This means that the two governorates are hosting around half of the UNHCR-registered refugees in Jordan. The accompanying official financial burden on Jordan, as estimated by some inter- national studies, stood at around US$2.1 billion in 2013 and is expected to hit US$3.2 billion in 2014. This chapter discusses the socio-economic impact of Syrian refugees on the host communities in both governorates. Relevant data has been derived from those studies conducted for the same purpose, in addition to field visits conducted by the research team and interviews conducted with those in charge, local community members and some refugees in these two governorates. 1. Overview of Mafraq and Irbid Governorates It is relevant to give a brief account of the administrative structure, demographics and financial conditions of the two governorates. Mafraq Governorate Mafraq governorate is situated in the north-eastern part of the Kingdom and it borders Iraq (east and north), Syria (north) and Saudi Arabia (south and east).
