Abstract

For an efficient management of the water resources the evaluation of the interactions between surface water and groundwater is essential. Dezful-Andimeshk Plain, as the largest and the most important agricultural plain in Khuzestan province, are experiencing increasing demand on surface water and groundwater resources for the agricultural use. Accordingly the assessment of the relationship between aquifers and rivers for the proper management of water resources in this plain is of great importance. To this aim, this study applied Cluster Analysis to determine the interactions between groundwater resources and surface waters in the designated plain. In this study, the qualitative parameters of 37 groundwater wells and 3 hydrometric stations associated to Shavour, Dez and Karkheh rivers were investigated in normal, dry and wet periods. EC (Electrical conductivity), main cations (Ca2 +, Mg2 +, Na+, K+) and major anions (Cl-, HCO3-, SO4 2-) were assessed in water samples. Then, using Cluster Analysis, the similarity between stations was determined and the dendrogram indicated three distinct groups. The first group demonstrated the similarity between the Shavour river, Dez river and the right-hand seafront aquifer. The second group denoted the qualitative repository wells in the southern plain and the third group reflected the similarity of the Karkheh River with the wells neighboring the river. Results have shown that Dez River recharge directly affects the quality of the aquifer in the plain. Also it seems that Karkheh River has the least similarity to the surface water and groundwater resources in the plain.
