Integrating Policy Factors in Stream-Aquifer Models

by Nathan Buras, Univ of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Water Forum '86: World Water Issues in Evolution

Abstract:

One of the main issues appearing today in the field of water resources is the management of complex hydrologic systems consisting of surface streams and aquifers. The management problem includes the dynamic aspects of the regional hydrology, and the incorporation of socio-economic variables in its analysis. This paper presents an approach based on a dynamic programming formulation which considers explicitly some policy factors relevant to the development and utilization of regional water resources.
