The literature on transboundary water resources allocation modeling is still short on encompassing and analyzing complex geographic multiparty nature of basins. This study elaborates the Inter Temporal Euphrates and Tigris River Basin Model (ITETRBM), which is a linear programming based transboundary water resources allocation model maximizing net economic benefit from allocation of scarce wate...

متن کاملRestructuring of Water Usage in the Tigris-Euphrates Basin: The Impact of Modern Water Management Policies
This paper examines the ramifications of late twentieth century water management schemes–especially those initiated by the Republic of Turkey–for the riparians of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The Turks’ geographical position, and their ability to construct large water storage systems, has essentially given them command of the headwaters of the Euphrates and, to a lesser degree, the Tigris. ...
متن کاملClimate Change Finger Prints in Mountainous Upper Euphrates Basin
