December 2022 Monthly Bulletin

Department of Niger Basin Observatory (DNBO)

The hydrological situation during December 2022 was characterized by the continuation of low flow in the Upper Niger, Inner Delta and Lower Niger sub-basins. However, the rise in flows continues in the Middle Niger sub-basins due to the influence of the Guinean flood.

The Sélingué dams in Mali and Kainji in Nigeria have gradually started releasing water to support downstream flows.
