The effects of Rainfall and Discharge on Aquifers in Iran| Chapter 4 | New Visions in Science and Technology Vol. 1
Ground water, the world's most important source of fresh water, is experiencing a quantitative and qualitative decline due to overuse and precipitation changes. These problems are most noticeable in dry, low-precipitation areas like Iran. Chaharmahal Va Bakhtiari province, which provides roughly 10% of Iran's water resources, is also dependant on groundwater resources due to its physiographic features and concentration of developable regions (more than 85 percent of consumed water). Groundwater levels and quality have both plummeted as a result of this situation. Groundwater levels and quality in the Javanmardi region, which is the province's agricultural heartland In this study, we'll look at hydro-climatological factors to figure out what's causing the situation. The findings reveal that precipitation variations and the natural logarithm of annual flows have an impact on water levels, and that there is a significant link between the two (0.28 and 0.744 for rainfall and discharge). More than 56 percent of the water table level fluctuations in the studied region are accounted for by these two factors in the third space. We also used SWOT analysis to come up with some strategic alternatives to avoid this. Furthermore, the findings suggest that surface and runoff water can rejuvenate aquifers.
