 Intense sunlight and heat increase the body's need for water. To conserve your body fluids and energy, you will need a shelter to reduce your exposure to the heat of the day. Travel at night to lessen your use of water.

+====General Guidelines==== <!--T:2-->
 Understanding how the air temperature and your physical activity affect your water requirements allows you to take measures to get the most from your water supply. These measures are--
 * Find shade! Get out of the sun!
 * Place something between you and the hot ground.
@@ Line 12: / Line 14: @@
 * If water is scarce, do not eat. Food requires water for digestion; therefore, eating food will use water that you need for cooling.
 ''Thirst is not a reliable guide for your need for water.'' A person who uses thirst as a guide will drink only two-thirds of his daily water requirement. To prevent this "voluntary" dehydration, use the following guide:
 * At temperatures below 38 degrees C, drink 0.5 liter of water every hour.
 * At temperatures above 38 degrees C, drink 1 liter of water every hour.
 Drinking water at regular intervals helps your body remain cool and decreases sweating. Even when your water supply is low, sipping water constantly will keep your body cooler and reduce water loss through sweating. Conserve your fluids by reducing activity during the heat of day. Do not ration your water! If you try to ration water, you stand a good chance of becoming a heat casualty.
 Take extra care to avoid heat injuries. Rest during the day. Work during the cool evenings and nights. Use a buddy system to watch for heat injury, and observe the following guidelines:
 * Make sure you tell someone where you are going and when you will return.
 * Watch for signs of heat injury. If someone complains of tiredness or wanders away from the group, he may be a heat casualty.
@@ Line 28: / Line 35: @@
 * Check the color of your urine. A light color means you are drinking enough water, a dark color means you need to drink more.

 [[File:Ground_still.gif|thumb|300px|Below-ground still]]
 To make a belowground still, you need a digging tool, a container, a clear plastic sheet, a drinking tube, and a rock.
 Select a site where you believe the soil will contain moisture (such as a dry stream bed or a low spot where rainwater has collected). The soil at this site should be easy to dig, and sunlight must hit the site most of the day.
 To construct the still--
 * Dig a bowl-shaped hole about 1 meter across and 60 centimeters deep.
 * Dig a sump in the center of the hole. The sump's depth and perimeter will depend on the size of the container that you have to place in it. The bottom of the sump should allow the container to stand upright.
@@ Line 47: / Line 57: @@
 * Plug the tube when not in use so that the moisture will not evaporate.
 You can drink water without disturbing the still by using the tube as a straw.
 You may want to use plants in the hole as a moisture source. If so, dig out additional soil from the sides of the hole to form a slope on which to place the plants. Then proceed as above.
 If polluted water is your only moisture source, dig a small trough outside the hole about 25 centimeters from the still's lip (Figure 6-8). Dig the trough about 25 centimeters deep and 8 centimeters wide. Pour the polluted water in the trough. Be sure you do not spill any polluted water around the rim of the hole where the plastic sheet touches the soil. The trough holds the polluted water and the soil filters it as the still draws it. The water then condenses on the plastic and drains into the container. This process works extremely well when your only water source is salt water.
 You will need at least three stills to meet your individual daily water intake needs.
