dc.description.abstractBurundi, a landlocked country in the middle of Central Africa covers an area of 27,834 km². Its relief forms a complex of five geomorphologic zones including the Imbo floodplain, the Congo-Nile watershed, the central plateaus and the depressions of Bugesera and Kumoso. The climate varies according to altitude. The altitudes above 2000 m, materialised by the Congo-Nile watershed have mean precipitation ranging between 1400 mm and 1600 mm and annual mean temperature oscillating around 15°C with the minima sometimes going as down as 0°C. The central plateaus, whose altitude oscillates between 1500 and 2000 m, receive approximately 1200 mm of annual precipitation with 18 to 20°C of average temperature. The zones of altitudes below 1400 m in the Imbo floodplain and the depressions of Kumoso and Bugesera have annual mean precipitation below 1200 mm and sometimes below 1000 mm, and average annual temperature above 20°C. The country is divided into two large catchments areas: The Nile basin that includes on the one hand the Ruvubu and its tributaries and on the other hand the Kanyaru, Kagera tributaries, and the Congo River basin
