Abstract

With the development of urbanization since the 1960's, infiltration and recharge of rainwater into the aquifer systems decreased drastically. Increase in the population also created a difficult situation for supplying sufficient water resources to the urbanized area. Therefore, effective utilization of water resources and development of unused water in the regional scale should be studied. A conventional hydrological cycle model combining the rain water recharge tanks with the quasi-three dimensional groundwater flow model was developed taking account of the land use and geological conditions.The development of regional water resources was discussed by using the present model. Various hydrological components of the water balance estimation in the study area were clarified. It was concluded from the present study that the proposed conventional model is useful and applicable for making a plan of water management.
