500			_aSummary: The United States (U.S.) U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has been working with the Afghanistan Geological Survey (AGS) and the Afghanistan Ministry of Energy and Water (MEW) on water-resources investigations in the Kabul basin under an agreement supported by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). This collaborative investigation compiled, to the extent possible in a war-stricken country, a varied hydrogeology data set and developed limited data-collection networks to describe Kabul basin's water resources. This report presents the results of a multidisciplinary assessment to address questions of future water availability in the presence of population growth and the potential impacts of climate change on the resources of the Kabul basin. The investigation integrated recently acquired remotely-sensed data and satellite imagery, including glacier and climatic data; recent climate change analyses: recent geologic investigations…—(p. 70).
