1 CSIRO Land and Water, Adelaide, Australia. Email: [email protected] 2 CSIRO Land and Water, Canberra, Australia. Water is a key resource to sustain human life. Therefore, sustaining growth in the human population requires even more water to be available. Water sharing management is the major problem for water resources and irrigation management decision makers. The water Act 2007-Austral...

abstract one of the major factors on the amount of water resources is river flow which is so dependent to the hydrologic and meteorologic phenomena. simulation and forecasting of river flow makes the decision maker capable to effectively manage the water resources projects. so, simulation and forecasting models such as artificial neural networks (anns) are commonly used for simulation and predi...

Many countries are not able to manage their water resources to sustainably meet current and future demands because they lack a comprehensive assessment of the quality and availability of their resources. The need for comprehensive assessments is well recognized, but often the required information is unavailable owing to gaps in hydrological information and understanding. These gaps are particul...

nowadays protecting land cover, quality and quantity of water resources are important. surface runoff is one of most important reasons of soil erosion which causes sediment in reservoirs and reduction of land’s fertility and also quality reduction water of rivers. so the main issue is exact prediction of basin runoff to raining events. the hydrologic models are simplified models of real hydrolo...

Background: Legionella species are ubiquitous and naturally found in lakes, rivers, streams and hot springs, and other water resources. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of Legionella species in water resources of Iran by a systematic review and meta-analysis.Methods: In search of papers relevant to the prevalence of Legionella in water resources of Iran, the scientific info...

semiarid regions with their exceptional weather conditions, low precipitation, and high evapotranspiration pose a great challenge to water resources managers. one possible way to face this challenge is the conjunctive use of both surface water and groundwater resources in these regions. this paper proposes a conjunctive use model which has been implemented in najafabad plain in central iran. th...

to evaluate the effects of the current situation and future development on source groundwater whether quantitative or qualitative point of view, simulation computer resources, a powerful tool in the optimal utilization of source is considered. year recent several model of math and computer simulation of hydraulic behavior of underground water resources focus is located. like making mathematical...

This paper presents a case study of resilience theory to understand agricultural systems in the Luancheng County of the North China Plain. A dynanic system model coupled with social, economic and ecological subsystems of agriculture for the Luancheng County was constructed with a time step of one month. The model includes five main components, water resources, profitability, irrigation, crop yi...
