Quantitative Model of Underground Waters of Songhor Dessert (Western Iran)

Mathematical models are changed into efficient tools during recent years for any studies and water resources makagement. Quantitative model of underground waters of Songhor dessert has been supplied with an area of 56 sqkm located at northeast of Kermanshah province. The long-term average and annual rain in this dessert is equal to 450mm with a reduction up to 240 mm due to various draughts within recent years as well. Quantitative understanding of underground water currencies and various parameters of dessert balance are the major goals for preparing any model for underground waters at Songhor dessert. We studied some managerial options by the use of quantitative model. According to the results for different scenarios including estimation of drilling new wells and also situation of underground waters it was possible to analysis any reduction of %20 in wells at Songhor dessert.
