<strong>Abstract</strong>
Since catchment scale measurement of meteorological and hydrological factors affecting on the basin response in the form of runoff generation and sediment production is not feasible, study of governing processes under a rainfall-runoff modeling framework is necessary. In this reaserch, to understand the relationship between runoff and sediment production in Beheshtabad Basin, and generalizing the results to Alej Watershed a six years daily simulation was performed using a distributed model called WetSpa. For this purpose the basic maps and hydrologic data including peak discharge and hydrographs were used. Spatial distribution of hydrological processes was taken into account in the modeling. Moreover, another 6-years time series (unused for parametrization), were used for model validation. The simulation results showed a satisfactory good agreement between modeled both simulated runoff and sediment against observations. The Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency57.6 for runoff and coefficient of determination 0.59 mean that the sediment-runoff relationship for any rainstorm depends on the dynamic of hydrologic processes. The results of sensitivity analysis for WetSpa model showed that ksnow, ki, kg and kss were ranked as the most sensitive parameters correspondingly. While Krain and Pmax parameters were identified as less influential parameters on the simulated hydrograph. Sensitivity of ksnow and g0 parameters is an indication for the importance of baseflow in Beheshtaba basin and the necessity of paying special consideration for its key role in hydrological modeling.<strong> </strong>

Routing of river flow is one of the most important of water resources management topics to adopt appropriate decision in occurrence time of flood or droughts. In this study, artificial neural networks (ANN), gene expression programming (GEP), wavelet- neural network (WNN) and least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) models were used for routing of Baleqlu-Chay river daily flow, located at Dareh-Roud watershed. Daily river discharge data of two consecutive hydrometric stations located at the mentioned river for the period of 1997-2013. The statistics indices including, root mean square error (RMSE), correlation coefficient (R), Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient (NS) and Bias were used to evaluate the precision of the models. Comparison of results demonstrate that the LS-SVM with RMSE=1.540 m<sup>3</sup>/s, R=0.894, NS=0.713 and Bias=0.013 had the best performance in the test period. But in estimating of peak discharge values, the WNN model with average relative error equal to 34.21% had the least error. It should be mentioned that all of the models tended to underestimate the discharge values. <strong>Abstract</strong>

Groundwater is an important source of water supply in arid and semi-arid regions. Optimal management of water resources and their conservation and improvement for quality and quantity need to have amount and distribution of water data in a defined geographical area. According to this issue, in this study we want to assess both qualitative and quantitative risk of groundwater resources using the modified IMDPA model and geographical information system (GIS) in plains of Fars province. The purpose of this study is to prepare a suitable zonation and vulnerability maps of qualitative and quantitative status of groundwater in order to determine the areas with higher risk. This is a basic and vital step in water resources management for priotorization of areas in order to prepare a combat plan against qualitative and quantitative degradation of groundwater. To prepare Zonation maps of qualitative and quantitative status of groundwater, spherical ordinary kriging method was used. The required data of this study is related to precise data recording of Fars Regional Water Company. The results of this study indicate that the Lowering of Water Table (quantitative status) in 81% of Fars plains is at severe and very severe hazard classes. The quality status of about 58% of Fars province plains is at severe and very severe hazard classes. Overall, more than 83% of Fars province plains are in state of severe and very severe hazard classes of ground water condition. Severe and very severe hazard classes were observed in many parts of the province especially in central and southern regions, the moderate and slight hazard classes were observed mainly in the northeastern parts of the province.<strong>Abstract</strong>

<strong>Abstract</strong>
Depending on land and water resourses avilibility, on-farm water management is usually aimed to maximize yeild or water productivity. The crop water stress index (CWSI) shows the plant's available water status well and therefore used as an appropriate tool for irrigation management in the field. The purpose of this study was determination of crop water stress index to soybean at different stages of growth in order to irrigation planing to achieve maximum yield and irrigation water productivity. For this purpose, soybean was cultivated with four irrigation regimes at the research farm of Lorestan University Agriculture faculty in the summer of 2016. The Irrigation levels were I1, I2, I3 and I4 with 100, 80, 60 and 40 percentof full water requirement, respectively. According to the results, the effect of irrigation levels on yield and soybean water productivity was significant at 1% probability level. The highest and the lowest values of CWSI were observed in I4 and I1, respectively in different growth stages. Also, the correlation of between CWSI and soil moisture content was significant at 1% probability level. The maximum yield was observed in I1 (1765.4 kg/ha) and The maximumwater productivity was 0.26 kg/m3 in I2. The values of CWSI for treatments ofI1 and I2were considered as the basis for irrigation scheduling to achieve maximum yield and water productivity. Finally, the CWSI values were obtained equal to 0.42, 0.37 and 0.29 for the maximum water productivity for the growth and development, middle and final stages of plant growth.

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of discharge on wetting pattern and simulation by HYDRUS-2D model. After preparing a physical model made of Plexiglas with specified dimensions, and filled with silty clay loam soils. By manually adjustable emitter, four discharges 2, 4, 6 and 8 liters per hour were tested. Irrigation time for each fixed discharge 2 hours and for moisture reparation distribution, 24hours is validated. Comparison of measured and calculated values with HYDRUS-2D model of the diameter and depth of the wetting front revealed that the correlation coefficient was above 90 percent of all discharges and was very low error rate which shows the ability of the HYDRUS-2D model to simulate the moisture but this ability was higher in the lower discharge. A comparison between the simulation with HYDRUS-2D model using data from various input Rosetta and data observations of wet pattern soil showed the input data of the model Rosetta is more will increase accurate simulation with HYDRUS-2D model.

Moving sprinkler systems such as travelling rain-gun and center pivot can have excessively high water application rates and are prone to runoff problems. This is exacerbated by the trend to low pressure operation, for the reason of saving energy which adds to the problem. The purpose of this paper is to assess, compare and simulate a more fundamentally based approach to predict runoff from sprinkler irrigation systems under moving rain gun conditions on coarse and fine soil textures practiced on both simple plane and ridge and furrow. Experiments were carried out on both simple plane and ridge and furrow plots sloped 0.67 percent with three replications. A travelling rain-gun with length of 200 m was employed to generate rainfall at three different speeds. Results showed no runoff with runoff coefficient of zero on coarse soil. However, a remarkable runoff with coefficient of 0.162 was considered from the fine soil texture on both simple plane and ridge and furrow practices plots, as machine run with the speed of 10 m/hr. Therefore, one of the approaches to overcome runoff problem and increasing irrigation coefficient is using this system over fine soil textures. On the hand, as much as the machine speed is lower, the potential for runoff is larger. In addition to field experiments, there was a good relationship between observed and predicted runoff using EUROSEM. This is because of a high regression coefficient (R > %90) and minimum Residual Mean Square Error (RMSE < 0.2) between them<strong>Abstract</strong> <br />Although moving sprinkler systems such as traveling rain-gun are usually designed, so that the instantaneous water application rate which is associated with low pressure is less than the soil final infiltration rate to avoid runoff; there are a growing number of sprinkler systems where potential runoff increases so much causing soil erosion. Moving sprinkler systems such as travelling rain-gun and center pivot can have excessively high water application rates and are prone to runoff problems. This is exacerbated by the trend to low pressure operation, for the reason of saving energy which adds to the problem.

By statistical comparison of results, root mean squared error (RMSE) for AQ-20 sprinkler in M5 and K-NN methods were obtained as 0.0681 and 0.052 and for KA-6 sprinkler as 0.086 and 0.0716, respectively. The results indicate the high accuracy of both methods for modeling, since M5 is capable of estimating explicit equations for estimating CU; it incorporates more practical features. <strong>Abstract</strong> <br />Considering that water shortage is the major dilemma for Sustainable agriculture development and water potential of the country is no longer able to adequately meet the growing needs of water demand especially in agricultural section, it's essential to optimize water consumption.Uniformity of sprinkler irrigation is an important technical parameter for designing sprinkler irrigation systems.
