Abstract

The aim of this study was investigating the effect of drought on groundwater storage and measuring the impact of future drought events under climate change conditions on Najafabad aquifer in Iran. A Support Vector Machine (SVM) model was developed to simulate groundwater storage by using the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to optimize SVM parameters. Various meteorological and hydrological drought indices were considered as model inputs and the best combination of drought indices was selected by the Gamma Test (GT) method. The drought analysis revealed that the Groundwater Resource Index (GRI) and the Reconnaissance Drought Index (RDI) were the most effective indices in modelling the aquifer. To examine future drought events under climate change, the outputs of five ISI-MIP5 (Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Inter-comparison Project) General Circulation Models (GCMs) were derived under two Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs). The results indicated that the most severe droughts will occur during the years 2035–2039 and 2033–2041 under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, respectively. Continuing the current aquifer withdrawal policy, the groundwater storage will be affected by future drought events and decrease by 8.8% and 9.5% compared to the base period (1990–2016) under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, respectively.
