Business As Usual

The Piracicaba, Capivari and Jundiaí River Basins (RB-PCJ) are located in the States of Minas Gerais and São Paulo, Brazil. By 2005, 5.8% of Brazil's General National Product-GNP was produced there. Such economic development has created a huge demand for water resources. The availability of water resources was assessed by running a dynamic systems simulation model to manage these resources in the RB-PCJ (WRM-PCJ), considering five 50-year simulations. WRM-PCJ was developed as a tool to aid the RB-PCJ Watershed Committee. The model computes water supply, demands, and contamination load from several consumers. When considering a Business-as-Usual scenario, by 2054, water demands will have increased up to 76%, 39% of the available water will come from wastewater reuse, and the contamination load will have increased by 91%. The Falkenmark Index started at 1403 m³ person-1 year-1 in 2004, ending at 734 m³ P-1 yr-1 in 2054; the Xu Sustainability Index started at 0.44 and ended at 0.20; and Keller's River Basin Development Phases started as Phase II, and ended at final Phase III, of Augmentation. The three criteria used to evaluate water resources showed that RB-PCJ is at a crucial management turning point. The WRM-PCJ performed well, and proved to be an excellent tool to assess water resources availability.

Molin River catchment is located in arid and semi-arid region in China. River water and groundwater are major water sources in this area. It is a key work to identify the interaction between river water and groundwater for not only water resources assessment and sustainable development, but residents living, industry and agriculture and environment protection. In this study, the interaction of Molin River water and groundwater has been analyzed systematically with hydrogeochemical and isotopic methods based on analyzing the characteristics of groundwater hydrodynamic field. The results show that Molin river water originates from groundwater in river source and is recharged by precipitation and groundwater with different recharge intensity along river flow. From the conclusions, it is obviously that these two parts of water cycle can not be departed, and their interactions need to be considered comprehensively in water resources assessment and development in order to avoid irreversible surface ecological environment damage in Molin River basin
