Abstract

Development of water accounting frameworks is one of the most important infrastructures in water resources management. New technologies, including remote sensing and hydrology models, have been developed around the world to manage water balance components. The objective of this paper is assessing the status of water resources and consumptions by developing and applying WA+ framework in the Rokh-Nieshaboor basin in data scarcity condition. For this purpose, a combined approach has been applied to the use of satellite measurements and hydrological modelling.and developing water resources and consumption sheet Checked out for the basin for three years, wet, normal and dry year. Water resources and consumption in the basin were also assessed by defining different performance indices during this period.The results showed that this approach along with application of WA+ framework can provide valuable results from the conditions and status of water resources and consumptions in the studied basin.In the developed sheets, the results of " Landscape evapotranspiration " in different land uses, as well as the share of water consumption in agricultural sectors using the concepts of " Incremental evapotranspiration" (610 million cubic meters), drinking (15 million cubic meters) and industry (2 Million cubic meters) presented separately. The analysis of performance indices showed that the basin is in a water scarcity conditions and ratio of consumed water to renewable water in the study period was more than 1, indicating the instability of the basin and the first result would be social and economic problems.
