The most difficult water resources management challenge in the Ganges Basin is the imbalance between water demand and seasonal availability. More than 80 % of the annual flow in the Ganges River occurs during the 4-month monsoon, resulting in widespread flooding. During the rest of the year, irrigation, navigation, and ecosystems suffer because of water scarcity. Storage of monsoonal flow for utilization during the dry season is one approach to mitigating these problems. Three conjunctive use management strategies involving subsurface water storage are evaluated in this study: Ganges Water Machine (GWM), Pumping Along Canals (PAC), and Distributed Pumping and Recharge (DPR). Numerical models are used to determine the efficacy of these strategies. Results for the Indian State of Uttar Pradesh (UP) indicate that these strategies create seasonal subsurface storage from 6 to 37 % of the yearly average monsoonal flow in the Ganges exiting UP over the considered range of conditions. This has clear implications for flood reduction, and each strategy has the potential to provide irrigation water and to reduce soil waterlogging. However, GWM and PAC require significant public investment in infrastructure and management, as well as major shifts in existing water use practices; these also involve spatially-concentrated pumping, which may induce land subsidence. DPR also requires investment and management, but the distributed pumping is less costly and can be more easily implemented via adaptation of existing water use practices in the basin. 相似文献

The Balasore coastal groundwater basin in Orissa, India is under a serious threat of overdraft and seawater intrusion. The
overexploitation resulted in abandoning many shallow tubewells in the basin. The main intent of this study is the development
of a 2-D groundwater flow and transport model of the basin using the Visual MODFLOW package for analyzing the aquifer response
to various pumping strategies. The simulation model was calibrated and validated satisfactorily. Using the validated model,
the groundwater response to five pumping scenarios under existing cropping conditions was simulated. The results of the sensitivity
analysis indicated that the Balasore aquifer system is more susceptible to the river seepage, recharge from rainfall and interflow
than the horizontal and vertical hydraulic conductivities and specific storage. Finally, based on the modeling results, salient
management strategies are suggested for the long-term sustainability of vital groundwater resources of the Balasore groundwater
basin. The most promising management strategy for the Balasore basin could be: a reduction in the pumpage from the second
aquifer by 50% in the downstream region and an increase in the pumpage to 150% from the first and second aquifer at potential
locations. 相似文献

This paper employs a modified penalty function and conjugate gradient based nonlinear programming algorithm to solve large integrated groundwater management problems.Discrete kernels are used to incorporate spatial and temporal distribution of the aquifer response due to external stresses. Significant improvements in computational speed and storage requirement are achieved owing to this unique conjugate gradient-discrete kernel combination. Simulations of the 'socially optimal' and 'open access' groundwater extraction schemes are presented as case studies of important policy implications. 相似文献

Within the Project – “Developing Strategies for Regulating and Managing Water Resources and Demand in Water Deficient Regions
(WSM)” funded by the EU in fifth Research Framework Program, the Ribeiras do Algarve River Basin was chosen as a case study
to develop a DSS for planning purposes. Located in the southern stretch of the Portuguese territory, crucial conflicts do
exist between tourist and agricultural water uses within the river basin. Additionally, there are important deficiencies in
urban secondary water supply. Also inadequate irrigation methods and poor quality of water existing in some areas urge the
implementation of management measures. Different ways to improve the water management situation were analysed: (a) structural
options, (b) demand management options and (c) socio-economic measures. These options were analysed using a range of combinations
of extreme demand and availability scenarios and ranked based on indicators reflecting the perception of the local stakeholders
towards economic development and social and environmental sustainability. On a second phase, the formulation of strategies
using the available options was addressed and two different strategies, resulting from a tentative timeframe of water management
options combination, were applied aiming to achieve goals defined with regional stakeholders, namely: (a) on a first stage,
the optimization of the domestic and irrigation water demand coverage and aquifer’s groundwater exploitation use ratio; (b)
on a second stage, the determination of the water pricing increase necessary to achieve economical sustainability, aiming
at cost recovery goals in accordance with the Water Framework Directive compliance. 相似文献

Design of treatment strategy considering the behavior of pollutant with respect to runoff hydrograph is important for effective management of storm runoff. In this study, a mathematical model for storm runoff management was developed. The model determines the storm runoff management strategy and the associated probability under the constraint of regulatory discharge limit, and can quantify the volume or fraction of a storm runoff that should be treated. The model application was demonstrated for total suspended solids (TSS) and benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) in urban storm runoff. The samples were collected from 15 storm runoff events in six impervious sites in Beijing urban area, and. For TSS, the probability that the whole runoff can be discharged without treatment was 46 %, and the whole runoff should be intercepted for treatment was 31 %. While under the constraint of the discharge limit for BaP, the dominant strategy was that the whole runoff should be intercepted for treatment, with a probability of 88 %. Compared with the treatment strategies, it was noted that the need for runoff treatment was more for BaP than TSS. This was because the pollution level of TSS was lower than BaP from the aspect of compliance with discharge limit. Because the most seriously contaminated and toxic pollutant should be taken as the primary indicator for runoff treatment, the treatment option for the study area should follow the strategies for BaP. This methodology may be applied for other pollutants in different watersheds. 相似文献

A modeling system was developed to evaluate the sustainability of water resources management strategies in the two major basins
of Thessaly Region in Greece, namely the Pinios River and the Lake Karla basins. The intense and extensive agriculture of
water demanding crops, such as cotton, and the absence of reasonable water resources management have lead to a remarkable
water demand increase, which is usually fulfilled by the over-exploitation of groundwater resources. This unsustainable practice
has deteriorated the already disturbed water balance and accelerated water resources degradation. The modeling system consists
of a hydrological model, a reservoir operation model and methods for the estimation of water demands. The study area was sub-divided
into sub-basins and water balance analyses were performed for each sub-basin and each control node of the system for a number
of water resources management strategies. Four strategies of hydro-technical project development were coupled with two strategies
of groundwater withdrawal and three water demand strategies. In total, more than 24 water management strategies were evaluated.
The results showed that, under the existing water resources management, the water deficit of the Pinios River and Lake Karla
basins is very large. However, the development of proposed hydro-technical projects in the Pinios River basin coupled with
water demand management measures, like improvement of existing water distribution systems, change of irrigation methods, and
changes of crop cultivation could alleviate the problem and lead to sustainable and ecological use of water resources in the
study area. 相似文献

The flows of the Rio Conchos are of vital economic importance not only to the agricultural sector in the Mexican side of the
Rio Grande basin but also for meeting Mexico’s obligation to deliver water to the United States. During the previous decade,
a severe drought dramatically decreased the basin’s runoff, generating serious economic, social, and political problems in
both countries. A System Dynamics (SD) model designed to serve as a decision-support system (DSS) for water managers has been
created. This DSS is a lumped semi-distributed model operating on a monthly basis. This DSS incorporates the most important
elements of the Conchos basin’s water resources system: main rivers, irrigation distribution canals, reservoirs, aquifer,
and the three Irrigation Districts. The DSS simulates different short and long term scenarios combining inside and outside
Irrigation Districts (IDs). Also, different short scenarios are implemented to investigate the benefits of water transfer
from México to the United States. This study has prompted awareness with regards to the degree of complexity and uncertainty
of the water right allocation process to different economic variables such as crop yield, production costs, crop prices, subsidies,
and water distribution efficiencies. 相似文献

Economic ideas and processes are becoming increasingly integrated with more traditional engineering and hydrologic models
of water management problems. Combining economic management concepts and performance indicators with an engineering-level
of understanding of a hydrologic system can provide results and insights more directly relevant for water management decisions
and policies. When such models are developed and used with involvement of stakeholders, they can become a basis for shared
understanding of water problems as a foundation for negotiated management and policy solutions. When implemented with optimization
software, integrated hydro-economic models also can suggest promising innovative solutions for policy-makers to consider.
Their applications to river basin management problems are reviewed. Economic and integrated economic-engineering-hydrologic
modeling is then discussed in the context of the evolving European Water Framework Directive. Relevant items are cost recovery
and water pricing, cost-effectiveness of water management measures, and public participation in decision processes. 相似文献

Water stress conditions associated with population growth, climate change, and groundwater contamination, represent a significant challenge for all stakeholders in the water sector. Increasing the resilience of Water Supply Systems (WSSs) becomes of fundamental importance: along with an adequate level of service, sustainability targets must be ensured. A long-term management strategy is strictly connected to a holistic approach, based on analyses at different scales. To this end, both groundwater modeling tools and water management models, with different spatial and temporal scales, are routinely and independently employed. Here, we propose a coupled approach combining: i) groundwater models (MODFLOW) to investigate different stress scenarios, involving climate change and anthropic activities; ii) water management models (Aquator), to assess the water resources availability and the best long-term management strategy for large-scale WSS. The management models are implemented starting from input and output flows derived by groundwater models: this leads to establish a comprehensive framework usually not defined in management models and including a quantitative characterization of the aquifer. The proposed methodology, general and applicable to any study area, is here implemented to the WSS of Reggio Emilia Province, and its main groundwater resource, the Enza aquifer, considering three different stress scenarios for groundwater models (BAU, ST1, and ST2), and for management strategies (BAU, BAURV2, ST2). Among the key results, we observe that coupling the two model types: i) allows evaluating water resources availability in connection with management rules; ii) leads to examining more realistic operation choices; iii) permits planning of infrastructures at basin scale. 相似文献

Groundwater pumpings have been prohibited by the government since 1970 due to the overexploitation and severe land subsidence
in the Taipei Basin. Declining water levels were gradually recovered back. Nowadays, high groundwater levels are developed
in the Taipei Basin. This may cause safety problems such as seepage of underground facility, and liquefaction by the strong
earthquake jeopardizing millions of people’s lives and properties in the metropolitan area of Taipei. To reduce the associated
risks, the study aims to formulate a management strategy to rationally reduce the groundwater level declining trend and sustainable
utilization of groundwater resources in the Taipei Basin. A hydrogeologic model of Taipei Basin using MODFLOW-96 was setup
to evaluate water budget and safe yield of the aquifer. The simulated water budget indicates that the groundwater annual storage
increases about 17 million cubic meters in the main (Jingmei) aquifer. The average groundwater safe yield of the Taipei Basin
estimated by the Hill method is about 54 million cubic meters per year. Moreover, with consideration of the reduction of liquefaction
risks the revised average safe yield is about 126 million cubic meters per year. To effectively use and manage groundwater
resources, restriction order on the use of groundwater resources in the Taipei Basin need to be revised. The implementation
of groundwater management index coupled with an upper limit of the average groundwater level set as −7.5 m below the surface
for avoiding earthquake caused liquefaction is suggested to manage the groundwater level for safe-use of groundwater resources
in the Taipei Basin. 相似文献

目前流域水资源管理尚缺乏一个统一的理论体系,在管理的实践中常常带有不同程度的盲目性,影响了流域水资源管理的有效性和合理性。通过采用概念界定的分析方法,对水资源、管理和水资源管理等概念进行了新的界定,阐明了管理与保护、开发和利用的关系,以及实现保护、开发和利用的管理体制、管理运行和管理机制的关系。分析表明,管理与保护、开发和利用之间是一种层次关系;保护、开发和利用之间,以及管理体制、管理运行和管理机制之间是一种相互依存、相互制约的关系。由此勾画出的流域水资源管理的理论框架,为实现水资源的可持续利用奠定了理论基础。 相似文献

Water resources management in semiarid regions with low precipitation and high potential of evapotranspiration is a great challenge for managers and decision makers. In those regions, both sources of water should be managed conjunctively so as to minimize shortages of water in dry seasons. In conjunctive use, the difficulty increases as one must represent the response of both systems interactions, and develop management strategies that simultaneously address surface water and aquifer regulation. This paper focuses on the simulation-optimization for conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater on a basin-wide scale, the Najafabad plain in west-central Iran. A trained artificial neural network model is developed as a simulator of surface water and groundwater interaction while a genetic algorithm is developed as the optimization model. The main goal of the simulation-optimization model is to minimize shortages in meeting irrigation demands for three irrigation systems subject to constraints on the control of cumulative drawdown of the underlying water table and maximum capacity of surface irrigation systems. To achieve the main goal, three scenarios are presented. Results of the proposed model demonstrate the importance of the conjunctive use approach for planning the management of water resources in semiarid regions. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Past failures in interregional transfer of water management strategies have revealed the need to develop new ones, effective enough to meet various forms of water inadequacy and based on fundamental interrelations between land and water. A point of departure is the recognition that man is forced to manipulate his environment to reach self-reliance for rapidly growing populations. It is therefore necessary to strike a balance between the benefits intended and the unavoidable feedbacks on the resource base without endangering its long-term productivity. An important component is the concept of environmentally sound management of land and water resources. The article particularly stresses the differences between zones with different climates, based on a three-dimensional problem matrix. 相似文献

In arid and semi-arid regions of the M editerranean, fresh water resources are finite and most of the economically viable development of these resources has already been implemented. The situation has worsened further owing to the increasing population and the associated expansion of urbanization and economic activities, all of which require more water and thus impose a tremen dous strain on this already limited and fragile water resource. Following the traditional technique of increasing supply is questionable. The alternative option is to manipulate the demand side for all water use sectors, particularly the agricultural one, which accounts for up to 80% of water consumption. In the Mediterranean region there is no question about the crucial im portance of integrated demand management aiming at efficiency, equity and long-term water security, using the tools that the legal and econ omic policy, scientific and technological advancement have made available. 相似文献

This paper focuses on the development of a framework for strategy considerations for water resources management in South Africa
to meet the development goals in the municipal and agricultural sectors. The north western part of South Africa experiences
severe periods of drought and according to the climate change projections, will be most vulnerable to future climate induced
water supply stress. A framework for selecting appropriate strategies is presented. A series of potential adaptation strategies
most suitable for long term adaptation are discussed. These include both supply and demand side strategies. Barriers and obstacles
to implementing these strategies include human and financial resource deficiencies at local municipal and community levels. 相似文献
