in recent years, the water quality of karun river, iran, has been affected by different pollutant loads such as agricultural drainages, municipal and industrial wastewaters.water quality index (wqi) and gis as an efficient tool can be used to provide necessary support for decisions of the management actions in this river and also capability of time series models can be beneficial for forecastin...

The purpose of this paper is twofold: to describe the water quality model of Three-Dimensional Hydrodynamic-Eutrophication Model (HEM-3D) and to present an application of HEM-3D to a coastal system in Korea. HEM-3D, listed as a tool for the development of Total Maximum Daily Load by US Environmental Protection Agency, is a general-purpose modeling package for simulation of the flow field, trans...

There is an increasing demand for knowledge about hydrodynamic, morphological and water quality processes within the estuarine waterways of the Gold Coast. This study describes the development of a suite of hydrodynamic, sediment transport and water quality models for the Gold Coast tidal waterways. The modeling framework described was developed to provide a strategic understanding of waterway ...

it is over two decades that groundwater flow models are routinely implemented for better management of groundwater resources.modeling groundwater flow with the help of the ground water modeling system (gms) in the damghan plain aquifer in northern iran,which experiences declining levels and numerous environmental hazards, has demonstrated that, (a) in the worst case scenario theaquifer will fac...

in this research, the physico-chemical water quality parameters and the effect of climate changes onwater quality is evaluated. during the observation period (5 months) physico-chemical parameterssuch as water temperature, turbidity, saturated oxygen, dissolved oxygen, ph, chlorophyll-a, salinity,conductivity, and concentration of total nitrogen (nutrient level) as main pollutant factor have be...

Karkheh river is located in southwestern of Iran. Industrial and agricultural activities around the river contaminate it through its path. Water quality modeling from upstream of Shoosh city to downstream was simulated by QUAL2K model. In this study, we investigated how best to manage the quality of Karkheh river to be done. Nine parameters including BOD, COD, DO, PH, turbidity, nitrate, phosph...

A spatial decision support system is a solution for spatial issues and problems applying a computer system and providing results for decision making. This comprehensive review study has been carried out to determine GIS and RS in SDSS towards water quality modeling in Malacca River. Rapid development in land use for human activities include agricultural and livestock activities, industrial acti...
