Climate, hydrology and water resources (Angolan sector)
The Cubango River starts in the Bie plateau, Angola's hydrographic centre, to the South of Vila Nova, at an altitude of 1800 m, and in its initial track, it runs North-South until Menongue, from where it heads Northwest-Southeast. Downstream Cuangar, its course evolves West-Eastwards and it continues to the Southern Angola/Namibian border until Mucusso, at a length of 975 Km, in the Angolan territory. In the territory of Namibia, the river is known as the Okavango river, its length does not exceed 55 Km.
