Simulation Model Construction of Comprehensive Evaluation of Groundwater Reasonable and Effectively Utilization in Tokyo, Japan

After 1970s, Japan has established relative laws and regulations to constraint industrial water, building water usage and forbidden unreasonable ground water exploitation which is caused by large amount of groundwater exploitation in 1960s. Such measures solved ground collapse problem on one hand indeed; on the other hand, along with the prevention of ground water exploitation, the groundwater level recovered to the normal level, and the floating power brought by groundwater rising threatened the architecture underground. The claim for groundwater utilization is rising. Also, groundwater has high value and good quality to supply water resource. Therefore, this research aims to construct a comprehensive groundwater exploitation model to clarify the sustainable groundwater utilization and economic, environmental impacts brought by groundwater usage. This new comprehensive model combined optimal groundwater exploitation model, water cycle model and socio-economic model together to practice optimal simulation. Through computer scenarios, we can clearly ensure groundwater utilization amount and method considering the sustainable development. Furthermore, the simulation model can be applied in other regions adjusting by specific characteristics.
