“…The size of the reservoir is one factor investigated in the reservoir simulation model connected to optimization techniques for searching optimal rule curves [92,93]. The study focused on reservoirs in Thailand, which are classified into three levels based on water retention volume criteria: small, medium, and large reservoirs [94].…”

This paper presents a comprehensive review of optimization algorithms utilized in reservoir simulation-optimization models, specifically focusing on determining optimal rule curves. The study explores critical conditions essential for the optimization process, including inflow data, objective and smoothing functions, downstream water demand, initial reservoir characteristics, evaluation scenarios, and stop criteria. By examining these factors, the paper provides valuable insights into the effective application of optimization algorithms in reservoir operations. Furthermore, the paper discusses the application of popular optimization algorithms, namely the genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), cuckoo search (CS), and tabu search (TS), highlighting how researchers can utilize them in their studies. The findings of this review indicate that identifying optimal conditions and considering future scenarios contribute to the derivation of optimal rule curves for anticipated situations. The implementation of these curves can significantly enhance reservoir management practices and facilitate the resolution of water resource challenges, such as floods and droughts.

“…To overcome this problem or minimize its effect, water harvesting techniques can be used. Two other vital studies about Iraqi watersheds [9,10] highlighted the importance of choosing optimal RWH dam sites on the borders of riparian countries. Al-Aqeeli et al [9] studied an individual and multireservoir system along the Iraq-Turkey borders.…”

The relationship between rainfall and runoff is complex and directly related to human life, plants, and animals and their whereabouts. Modeling this process requires a suitable hydrologic model to determine accurate results, such as volume and peak discharge of runoff, that can be adopted in the planning and management of water resources. Many factors affect the quantities of surface runoff that can be saved, including climate change and drought. In this study, HEC-HMS was used and calibrated to estimate the runoff volumes and peak discharge for (1986–2018). The initial and constant methods were considered and used to account for the precipitation loss. Snyder's unit hydrograph (UH) was the transform method. Drought characteristics can be analyzed by calculating the severity and duration of drought using the Modified Chinese Z Index (MCZI). The results showed the possibility of applying a rainwater harvesting system to achieve an abundance of water that compensates for the water scarcity in the study area. The seasonal surface runoff ranged from 1361.3-19706.8 (×103 m3) during the study period (1986–2018). Regarding the drought intensity, the region experienced its most severe period in 2007–2008, with a rate of 4.63, followed by 1998–1999 at a rate of 2.48. Both are classified as extreme drought. The study revealed that certain years had a higher intensity of drought and resulted in better water collection than other years when the area was affected by drought.
