Introduction
Due to the variation of rainfall and inflow regimes in
different years, it is necessary to adopt a suitable
management model for reservoir operation. Water
requirement may differ at different demand sites and
therefore it can be satisfied with one reservoir or a
network of reservoirs. Different methodologies are
adopted for optimal operation of a system of reservoirs.
These may be classified in different groups; Stochastic
Dynamic Programming (Braga et al., 1991, Ghahraman
and Sepaskhah, 2002), Fuzzy Rule Based Programming
(Faye et al., 1991), Linear Programming (Mohan and
Raipure, 1992) Deterministic Dynamic ProgrammingRegression Based (Karamouz et al., 1992), Mixed
Integer Non-Linear Programming (Teegavarapu and
Simonovic, 2000), and Dynamic Programming And
Artificial Neural Network (Chnddramouli and Raman,
2001),. Since nearly all dams in Iran regulate water for
agricultural uses, a wise discipline should be adopted
for best allocation of limited water (especially in
droughts) considering the uncertain future river yield.

Objectives
In this study, a deterministic Genetic Algorithm model
was adopted for optimal operation of a multireservoir
water resource system in the northern part of Khorasan,
northeastern Iran.
Methodology
Figure 1 schematically shows the system of the
reservoirs under study.

Conclusion
The developed model is capable of considering local
conditions such as soil properties, cropping pattern,
irrigation efficiency, and root lengthening algorithm.
The model outputs encompas different aspects of the
mutual soil-water-crop relationships including soil
moisture,
deep
percolation,
and
actual
evapotranspiration. It also grasped the attributes of the
reservoirs, such as reservoir release and the evaporation
and spill losses. Under the dry regime, total benefit is
sensitive to the available water in the reservoir at the
beginning of the season. This is not the case under the
other regimes. These results are highly local and every
change in the input variables, may change the results
drastically.
