This year, China's southwestern Chongqing Municipality and neighbouring province
Sichuan were ravaged by the worst drought in more than 50 years.
China's central and western regions will suffer an annual water shortage of
about 20 billion cubic meters from 2010 to 2030, the report said.
The report also predicted that more floods and droughts will hit the
country as water evaporates more rapidly from rivers.
The Yellow River, China's second longest, will see evaporation increase by
15 percent a year, it said.
It also warned that coastal areas would be at a greater risk of flooding as
China's sea level will climb 1 to 16 centimeters by 2030.
The report was jointly released by six central departments and
academic organizations, including the Ministry of Science and Technology,
China Meteorological Administration and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
