Groundwater simulation in Dak Lak province based on MODFLOW model and climate change scenarios

Purpose Groundwater plays a critical part in both natural and human existence. When surface water is scarce arid climates, groundwater becomes an immensely valuable resource. Dak Lak area that frequently lacks resources for everyday living production, the scarcity of exacerbated during dry season. As result, it to do study understand about meet region's demand. This aims extend use MODFLOW model simulation assess overall reserves demand highland province Lak. Design/methodology/approach The used this work compute analyze flow, prospective from which plan extraction estimate variation future. Findings application demonstrates that, despite limited data, particularly drilling hole data subterranean research, model's calculation results have demonstrated its reliability great potential other similar places. conjunction with modules useful input creating underground flow module maps various time periods. large impact recharge evaporation on supplies balance research by simulations climate change scenarios RCP4.5 RCP8.5. Originality/value None studies has been done previously Therefore, will provide insights resource management conservation can area's demand, according obtained area. However, rigorous monitoring activities should receive more attention.
