Evaluating the effects of climate change on Lar Basin Water Resources Using SWAT Model and comparing its results with Bayesian Networks and Hybrid Intelligent Models
Iran's location on the arid and semi-arid belt of the world, as well as the mismanagement of water resources, has created a warning situation of water shortage in many parts of the country. The present research evaluates the effects of climate change on temperature, rainfall and runoff in future periods with the help of LARS-WG statistical model and SWAT hydrological conceptual model for Lar Basin. To estimate the flow rate of the river, the performance of Bayesian network and the combined wavelet-neural network model are also examined. After entering the rainfall and temperature information of the region, runoff was simulated for two hydrometric stations of Gozeldareh and Plour and the outflow runoff of Plour station between 1979 to 2018 was calibrated and validated as a control point. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the models, the criteria of Nash-Sutcliffe and explanation coefficient are used. According to climate models, the highest temperature increase in the final period and under the RCP8.5 climate scenario shows about 10% increase in temperature in spring and winter. Finally, among these models, the physical model with an average annual prediction of 6.04 cubic meters per second according to the observation period, showed a decrease in runoff
