The central part of the catchment areas to the Atlantic
The biggest part of the Atlantic drainage area covers the river systems of the Kuiseb, Swakop, Omaruru and Ugab. These form - on account of their sandy and groundwater-bearing river-beds - the most densely populated portion of South West Africa, with the exception of Ovamboland (where 45% of the country's total population lives.)
