Water Balance of Quweiq River Basin
Abstract
Natural, human and political factors led to a big change in drainge of Quweiq River, and because hydrological stations is absent to measure the drainge of the river, and the difficulty of appreciation it that the headwaters of the river located in Turkey and the presence of several dams on the river bed (two of them in Turkey), Several station Climate data were used and data processed using (Excel 2013) and (Aqua crop).
Potential Evapotranspiration values Calculated in Ivanov method for (Isas, Sad Shahba, Almuslemya, Maarat Alnumman, Aleppo, Kilis) and the results were respectively (1611.8, 1657.6, 1683, 1892.1, 1783.6, 1980.3) mm/year, also drainge river were calculated based empirical equations, (Dickens, Ryves, Inglis, Bird–McWarn, and Finkel), and the results were very variation, and the volume of annual runoff was calculated by Brickle equation 0.18 billion m3and Ground Water Recharge 1.9 billion m3, and the values of Snyder`s Model showed that there is no risk of flood of Quweiq River.
