Farmers were still not allowed to use the water of Mas'adah Lake, dig wells or collect water from rain or snow.

Water collected from the ground, sometimes from areas which are especially prepared for this purpose, is called stormwater harvesting.

Rainwater harvesting is also widely employed as a relatively low cost option, both for household use and for small scale irrigation.

It had taken years of careful planning and infrastructural works to alleviate the flood situation and channel as much rainwater as possible into reservoirs.

Basin

At this time a dramatic shift in climate occurred, causing a significant drop in precipitation in the Titicaca Basin, believed by archaeologists to have been on the scale of a major drought.

The more nutrients that enter the water (run off from nearby land), the more the algae are favored, until, at some point, they take over.

For instance, poor planning can be witnessed in the hastily built system that deviates the rain waters to protect the airport of Skanes Monastir and the neighboring presidential summer palace.
