• Global International Waters Assessment - Global International Waters Assessment, UNEP/GEF GIWA, is providing high quality water information and is producing a comprehensive and integrated global assessment of international waters comprising marine, coastal and freshwater areas, and surface waters as well as groundwater's. GIWA will encompass the ecological status of and the causes of environmental problems of shared water areas in the world. Causal chain analyses will be an essential tool used to identify and better understand links between perceived problems and their societal root causes. Scenarios of the future condition of the world's water resources will also be developed. Methods are also developed for analyzing policy options with a view to providing sound scientific advice to the GEF, other decision-makers and to managers concerned with water resources

• Degassing Nyos - In 1986, a tremendous explosion of CO2 from the lake Nyos, West of Cameroon, killed more than 1700 people and livestock up to 25 km away. The dissolved CO2 is seeping from springs beneath the lake and is trapped in deep water by the high hydrostatic pressure. If the CO2 saturation level is reached, bubbles appear and draw a rich mixture of gas and water up. An avalanche process is triggered which results in an explosive over-turn of the whole lake. Since 1990 a French team has carried out a series of tests in an attempt to release the gas slowly through vertical pipes
