Water supply is a critical issue in the Middle East, particularly in the West Bank and Gaza Strip (Palestine). Water resources are scarce due to the arid climate and the population growth while water resources management and development is complicated by the ongoing Israeli occupation. There is a critical lack of sanitation in the West Bank. Only 45% of the Palestinian population is connected t...

Due to the effects of climate change and the increasing demand on water, sustainable development in term of water resources management has become a major challenge. In this context, the application of simulation models is useful to duel with the uncertainty and complexity of water system by providing stakeholders with the best solution. This paper outlines an integrated management planning netw...

Abstract In addressing management scenarios and climate changes, it is necessary to consider surface water groundwater resources as an integrated system. this context, the present research first simulates evaluates simultaneously; then, examines possible effects of change on these in study area (Mahabad, Northwest Iran). stage, WEAP-MODFLOW model was applied a 10-year period (2006–2015) order t...

Particularly in water resource systems that frequently experience severe drought events, generic simulation models provide useful information for the definition of drought mitigation measures. Among them, AQUATOOL (Valencia Polytechnic University), MODSIM (Colorado State University), RIBASIM (DELTARES), WARGI-SIM (University of Cagliari) and WEAP (Stockholm Environmental Institute) are here con...

This research was structured to examine the impact of domestic as well Agricultural water demand on current and future surface available within Kaduna South Catchment Nigeria. Also taking into consideration climate variability a factor that will either increase or decrease temperature precipitation in catchment, with significant effect stream flow river basin. A dual Order modelling approach ad...

In the Peruvian Andes, water infiltration from tropical wetlands, called páramo, generates headwaters for downstream rivers. The hydrological processes of these wetlands are not well understood within the larger hydrological system, impeding efforts to mitigate the rapid environmental changes anticipated due to regional population growth and climate change. This study constructed and calibrated...

Among the major sources of energy supply systems, hydroelectric power plants are more common. Energy supply during peak hours and less environmental issues are some of the most important advantages of hydroelectric power plants. In this study, designing parameters to supply maximum amount of energy was determined by using the simulation-optimization perspective and combination of IWO-WEAP model...

Central Rift Valley Lakes sub-basin, Ethiopia. The competition for water is rapidly increasing in lakes sub-basin due to the combined effect of various resources developments. However, impacts recent and future development pathways on balance three interconnected (i.e. Lake Ziway, Langano Abiyata) are unknown. Water Evaluation And Planning (WEAP) model was used assess lakes. We considered that ...
