The groundwater sustainability of an alluvial aquifer in the western Iran was examined by using eight different social, economic, and environmental indicators. Differing types of indicators were used including groundwater extraction, groundwater quality, and groundwater vulnerability from the environmental indicators proposed by UNESCO 2007 and the legal framework, institutional capacity, public participation, knowledge generation, and promotion and water productivity from five researcher-developed indicators. A questionnaire and an AHP analysis were used to assess groundwater sustainability in the Mahidasht aquifer. Using AHP method, the indicators were formulated as spatial thematic maps resulting in calculation of the groundwater sustainability index (GSI). Then, the final GSI was divided into four categories, including sustainable, near sustainable, unsustainable, and highly or critically unsustainable. The AHP results showed that most parts of the study area are contained within the unsustainable category. The questionnaire method also showed that the study area with the score of 1.47 belongs within the unsustainable category. The validation of AHP results indicated 97% of the area had more than 1-m of drawdown in the groundwater level and 62% of it had more than 10-m of decline in the water level. The results showed that different socio-economic and environmental indicators can provide a helpful overview of groundwater sustainability conditions for future planning and decision-making in water management. Few studies of water management using socio-economic indicators have been conducted in Iran, Therefore this study provides a novel method of groundwater sustainability assessment by using the concepts of sustainable development, and integrated spatial indicators.

社会经济背景下基于指标的地下水可持续性评估:伊朗西部的案例研究

通过使用八种不同的社会,经济和环境指标,对伊朗西部冲积含水层的地下水可持续性进行了研究。使用了不同类型的指标,包括教科文组织2007年提出的环境指标中的地下水提取,地下水质量和地下水脆弱性,以及五项研究人员制定的指标的法律框架,机构能力,公众参与,知识创造,促进和水生产率。问卷和AHP分析用于评估Mahidasht含水层中的地下水可持续性。使用AHP方法,将指标制定为空间专题图,从而计算出地下水可持续性指数(GSI)。然后,最终的GSI分为四个类别,包括可持续发展,几乎是可持续的,不可持续的,以及高度或严重不可持续的。层次分析法的结果表明,研究区域的大部分都包含在不可持续的类别中。问卷调查方法还显示,得分为1.47的研究区域属于不可持续的类别。AHP结果的验证表明,该地区97%的区域地下水位下降量超过1米,而62%的区域水位下降量超过10米。结果表明,不同的社会经济和环境指标可以为地下水可持续性条件提供有益的概述,以用于未来的水管理规划和决策。在伊朗,很少使用社会经济指标进行水管理研究,
