Modeling the effects of inter-basin water transfer on the surface and volume of the aquifer of the origin catchment by using WEAP software (Case Study: Effect of Water transfer of Behesht Abad River on Surface and Volume of Shalamar Aquifer)

inter-basin water transfer is the transfer of water from one basin to another. The basin which water is transferred to that is called the destination basin and the basin which water is transferred from that is called the origin basin.

description inter-basin water transfer is the transfer of water from one basin to another. The basin which water is transferred to that is called the destination basin and the basin which water is transferred from that is called the origin basin. Inter-basin water transfer despite the supply of water in the destination basin, could possibly be the cause of changes in the origin and destination basins that need to be evaluated. The purpose of this study is to predict the possible effects of Beheshtabad River water transfer to the central plateau of Iran on the surface and volume of one of the aquifers in the origin basin called Shalamzar and also to provide different strategies during 30 years. For this purpose, WEAP software was used. According to the results, inter-basin water transfer can have a negative impact on the surface and volume of aquifers in the origin basin and cause a decrease in groundwater level. in order to prevent the reduction of the volume of aquifer, the maximum water transfer in normal water conditions and drought was estimated at 450 and 160 MCM per year, respectively. Also, the maximum amount of transferable water according to the environmental needs in normal water conditions, was estimated about 350 MCM per year. The results of the model indicate that the rate of decrease in the volume of study aquifer in the conditions of water transfer and in case of implementation of water resources development projects during 30 years will be about 5 times.
