3 Historical flashback Throughout history, karstic aquifers have had an important role in urban development around the Mediterranean. In ancient Athens (a great example of sustainable water management), water supply was based on two main aqueducts, the Peisistratean and the Hadrianian (partly functioning till today), conveying water from karstic springs at foothills of surrounding mountains. Peisistratean aqueduct uncovered during the excavations for the Metro. Hadrianian aqueduct maintenance in Managing water supply resources in karstic environment 3

7 Karstic aquifer peculiarities Water basin model The design of a hydrological model of a water basin which includes karstic aquifers should take account of the following: 1.Karstic aquifers have great interaction with surface water (conjunctive simulation). 2.Karstic aquifers have small response times (good description of human intervention, e.g. abstractions) 3.Karstic aquifers may have significant influence to basin budget by importing/leaking water from/to other basins. 4.Karstic conduits network is irregular and difficult to describe; therefore it is preferable to be modelled using a conceptual (rough) approach.

12 Water basin model Groundwater model Limited number of cells. Large cells in areas with mild hydraulic gradient. Leakages from karstic conduits to the adjacent sea. Managing water supply resources in karstic environment 12

14 Water basin model Karstic formations, and pumping wells for irrigation Well abstractions from karstic aquifers influence directly the behavior of corresponding springs. Accurate estimation of well abstractions for irrigation are imperative. Managing water supply resources in karstic environment 14

22 Conclusions 1. In water basins with extended karst formations conjunctive surface water and groundwater simulation is compulsory. 2. Accurate physically based modelling of karst aquifers may be infeasible; however, a conceptual approach may suffice. 3. The water exchange between adjacent karst basins and the leakage to the sea may be a significant component of the water budget and requires a careful approach. 4. Good description of the human intervention (e.g. of well abstractions) in karstic aquifers may improve noticeably the model performance. 5. The management of a hydrosystem including some karst areas should be holistic; for example, karst formations in a single reservoir influence greatly the operation rules of the whole system.
