Hi

Is Andrew Goudie still in your department?  He should be able to give some
pointers.

MWR no longer exists.  Ministry of Regional Municipalities, Environment and
Water Resources launched a new website last week.  I don't know the url.

Hamad bin Suleiman al Ghuraibi, the Undersecretary, would be the official
contact.

Regards

Sue Hutton

  Subject: [Oman-L] Air photos and climate data


  Hello,

  I am a Geography Undergraduate at Oxford University, UK and am going to be
studying the aeolianite outcrops (cemented dune sands) in and around Qurm
for my dissertation and could do with some advice...

  I would really like some air photography of the area and was wondering
where, or how, I could get hold of such photos - any suggestions?

  It would also be very useful to look at data records concerning wind speed
and direction in the area.  I understand that I may be able to get this from
either the Directorate General of Civil Aviation and Meteorology (Department
of Meteorology) or from the Ministry of Water Resources - does anyone know
someone I could contact about this?

  Thanks for your time - any help will be much appreciated!

  Kind regards,
  Kate Murphy
