A river running through an alluvial area does not flow in the channel only; rather, the stream-water has some interaction with riparian groundwater, such as infiltration into an aquifer or exfiltration from the aquifer. Especially in case of the stream flowing with small discharge due to an artificial intake, the interaction between stream and aquifer may be important factor governing the stream condition. Because remarkable decrease of the discharge affects not only hydraulic quantities but also water quality and temperature, it is necessary to keep a minimum stream discharge in order to preserve the river environment. In this paper, toward evaluation of the minimum discharge, relationships between stream and aquifer are investigated through field investigations and hydraulic analyses. According to the observations in the Yasugawa alluvial fan, it is supposed that variation of the stream discharge may be caused by water exchange with the aquifer. The finding from the computed results indicates that this hydraulic model can become a useable tool for quantitative evaluation of the minimum discharge to keep the stream condition suitable.
