A New Aspect to Conventional and Un-Conventional Water Resources in Iran

Iran is located in MENA region that faced to water crisis. Based on latest data and analysis, the averageprecipitation of Iran is assumed ۲۲۵ millimeter, total annual available water estimate ۳۷۱ million cubicmeter and evaporation and transpiration was ۷۵ percent. The calculation of the most current waterscarcity indices shows that the condition of Iran is varied from stress (e.g the Falkenmark indicator) toseverely stressed (e.g. Water Scarcity Index (WSI)). Beside the a numerous resourced saline waterresources in the north and south Iranian boarders, the unconventional surface and groundwater waterresources are estimated ۱۲۸۰۱.۰۳ and ۱۷۶۵ million cubic meters, respectively. The results of AHP modelshows that water crisis is very importance in Esfehan, Khorasan Razavi, Gom, Khuzestan and Bushehrregions.
