Hydro climatic ranking of small Mediterranean islands

There are 40 small islands in the Mediterranean Basin. Most of these have very limited water resources, due to their geological structure and precipitation regime. This paper outlines the basic geographical and climatic features of small Mediterranean islands. It also suggests a ranking of islands with respect to an annual precipitation, precipitation surplus and hydrological size.
