This research aims to shed a light on the current state of the
Syrian water resource through studying the present resources
and analyzing the demand on them and their availability
during the period (1992-2012). This study focues at deriving
the f
uture forecast on the development of the demand on these
resources in order to better conceptualize their current state.
This in turn will lead to concluding a set of results and
recommendations that could contribute to improve the state of
the water resource in the sense of achieving sustainability and
prohibiting its depletion through the efficient and planned
usage.

This research includes a detailed study of the daily and monthly
changes to the intensity of total solar radiation in the city of Homs
(34.75N °, 36.7 E °), and a direct measurement of the intensity. The
study shows that intensity increases to max
imum values in summer
1100w / m2, and drops to lesser values in winter 600 w / m2. The
difference between the measured values in summer and winter is
due to: a change in the inclination of the sun, and implicitly solar
azimuth z. This angle is at its greatest in winter and the optical
path is at the maximum. Thus, the processes of scattering and
absorption increase. In summer, the inclination angle is at its lowest
and the optical path is at the minimum. Thus, the absorption and
scattering of solar radiation are at the minimum.
