Because Of the Decline in water resources in general, We Evaluated the Water Balance of the Orontes basin in the Syrian lands, where it was done During the research :A-Collecting available information on rain and weather stations, hydrometric stations, and the amount of water used for drinking, agricultural projects, and industrial investments in the study area.B -An analytical and statistical study of all the data that was obtained and mentioned in paragraph A .C-From all the previous information, the water balance of the Orontes Basin was calculated from 2020 to 2040, after taking into account all water imports, water needs, and investments and their development. So, when planning future engineering and water projects.
