摘要区域水资源短缺促使德克萨斯州中南部区域水资源规划小组积极制定水资源管理计划，以解决长期/短期的区域水资源需求。因此，本研究开发了一个综合的爱德华兹含水层地下水和河流系统模拟模型，以确定“最佳”的选择区域水管理计划，采用混合整数线性规划。经济，水文和环境后果的“最佳”选择的区域和其他水管理计划和选项进行评估和比较。结果表明经济效益和环境效益之间存在权衡。经济效益略有下降，环境效益却大幅度提高。
Abstract Regional water scarcity has motivated the South Central Texas Regional Water Planning Group to actively develop water management plans to address long-/short-term regional water needs. This study, therefore, develops an integrated Edwards Aquifer groundwater and river system simulation model to determine the “best” choice of regional water management plans using mixed-integer linear programming. The economic, hydrologic, and environmental consequences of the “best” choice of regional and other water management plans and options are evaluated and compared. Results indicate a tradeoff between the economic and environmental benefits. A slight decrease in economic benefit results in a substantial increase in environmental benefit.
