Abstract

The Bahar aquifer is one of the most economically important aquifers in the western part of Iran, covering the water demands for irrigation supplies. Intensive pumping for irrigation has caused a water table decline. The local water organisation has constructed a water storage structure to augment the groundwater resources. Groundwater recharge using water from the river via 13 dug wells and a related structure has been estimated as 2.7 million m(3), for the hydrological year 2002-2003. A three-dimensional model was developed to predict the aquifer system response. The effect of radial flow was found to be 4 km, and the area covering this recharge more than 40 km(2). The results of the numerical model could be used by local authorities and decision makers for groundwater resources management and planning. Finally, it is concluded that aquifer recharge is one environmental solution, as a part of integral water resources management. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
