  1. Optimization   for Sustainable Water Resources Management(OPTIMA) Presentation of Jordan Case Study Zarqa River Basin to the Third Management Board Meeting May 18-19, 2006 Gumpoldskirchen, Austria

  2. Project Team

  3. Contribution to WP 01 Requirements and Constraints FEEM • Level of Efforts by UJO 2 m/m • Activities: • Stakeholders were identified • Gender information were obtained • Source of information were identified • Data availability against requirements were defined • Data constrains were identified Status: • D01 (D1.1 and D1.2) were submitted by FEEM

  4. Contribution to WP 02 Socio-Economic frame work; objectives, criteria and indicators IRMCO • Level of Efforts by UJO 1 m/m • Activities: • Hydrological Map, Main Cities and Towns, Land Use of 2002, The location of the Basin in Jordan and some photos were sent to IRMCO for the Poster. • Challenges, water issues, gender issues and other related information were also sent Status: • D02 were submitted by IRMCO

  5. Contribution to WP 03 Analytical tools: simulation and optimization models ESS • Level of Efforts by UJO 1 m/m • Activities: • Hydrological data were collected and used to validate the WRM. • Many problems were solved with the model using problem reporting. • Wastewater treatment node needs to be treated not like geometry node. Status: • D03 were submitted by ESS

  6. Contribution to WP 04 Techno-economic data compilation and analysis INTERGEO • Level of Efforts by UJO 1m/m • Activities: • The link to this WP has been opened • Needs time to understand and enter required data. • Many items were found missing; need updating regarding technologies used in UJO CS. Status: • D04 (D4.1 and D4.2) are due in July 2006

  7. Contribution to WP 05 Land use change: remote sensing and GIS data NCRS • Level of Efforts by UJO 1 m/m • Activities: • GIS data for the followings were sent to NCRS: DEM, TIN, LU2002, area location, contours, wells, surface water bodies, administration boundaries, cities, towns and villages, main roads, streams, soils, rainfall and metrological stations, runoff gages, wastewater treatment plants. Status: • D05 (D5.1) is due in July 2006

  8. Contribution to WP 06 System integration and implementation ESS • Level of Efforts by UJO 1 m/m • Activities: • Able to use the WRM from web server at ESS. • Use the forum, problem reporting, access to deliverable and other tools. Status: • D06 (D6.1) is due in July 2006

  9. Contribution to WP 10 Jordan Case study: Zarqa River Basin UJO • Level of Efforts by UJO 30 m/m • Activities: • The basin was divided into 6 sub-basin considering topography, rainfall variation and urbanization. • Water supply for each sub-basin was obtained or determined in quantity, time series and location • Water Demand for each sub-basin was obtained or determined in time series and in quantity for each sector.

  10. Contribution to WP 10 Jordan Case study: Zarqa River Basin UJO • Activities: • Data on supply and demand for each node were entered and stored as time series. • WRM is now operational for the base-line scenario. • Land use/ cover change were assessed from 1992 till 2002 using Markov chain model. • Results of the base line scenario are obtained. Status • D10.1: Jordan problem analysis due July 2006 • D10.2: Optimization results due May 2007.

  11. Contribution to WP 10 Case study: Zarqa River, Jordan Milestone: Performance: The baseline scenario has been defined based on compiling all data and operating all tools.

  12. Contribution to WP 10 Case study: Zarqa River, Jordan • Impact Indicator: • The stakeholders expressed their satisfaction on the approach and results of the baseline scenario. • However, some constructive remarks have been raised and will be considered in the process of updating the scenario. • The stakeholder have suggested some guidelines to build the future scenarios to be incorporated in the optimization strategy.

  13. Land Use Changes

  14. Land use/cover • Visual interpretation of Landsat TM (1992,1998 and 2002) following CORINE scheme • GIS- analysis • Area of each LU/C • Transition matrices (probability of change) • Prediction of future Land use in the basin: • Using Markov chain • Based on the rate of change in the period 1992-2002.

  15. Land use/cover classification scheme

  16. Accuracy of mapping

  17. Land use map of 2002

  18. Land use of 2002

  19. Probability matrix between different classes, period 1992-2002 (10 years period).

  20. Predicted land use
