520 3 _aThe study area occupies the central part of Kuwait, which is categorized as a fragile, complex coastal arid zone. Numerous human activities, scarcity of rainfall, limited groundwater recharge, and an increase in water demand that is associated with population growth all have consequences in the shadow of climate change, which has negative impacts. These impacts are increasing pressure on the country's socioeconomic profile. This case study focuses on integrated environmental management. Due to a lack of integrated concepts and predicted climate change, the study area experiences more severe environmental problems (e.g., dust storms, sand encroachment, flash flooding, coastal Sabkha, and slope instability hazards). Furthermore, this case study focuses on the significance of addressing the difficulties associated with climate change that led to increasing groundwater salinity and domestic water consumption. Therefore, to reduce vulnerability to water resources in the study area, we need adaptation measures for effectively and sustainably managing water resources. The study uses physiographic sectors and geomorphological units. This study is based on field soil profile description, grain size texture classification, and field measurement of infiltration rate at some represented sites containing water points. The RS, GIS, LU LC change detection, and watershed analysis of both regional paleo-drainage and local basins indicate that the Al-Jahra area, due to its proximity downstream of the Al-Atraf steep slope basin, is most vulnerable to the severe hazardous impacts of flash flooding. These impacts reach their minimum potentiality in the regional basins within which the Al-Mutlla'a city project is located. However, climate change and a relevant increase in aridity and sandstorms may cause an activation of runoff and further migration of sand along the paleo-drainage channels near Al-Mutlla’a sites. Furthermore, using RS and GIS techniques, to prepared spatial analyses of groundwater quality and hill shading maps. The current study explored the potential environmental impacts of both the Pleistocene paleo-drainage system of the regional Al-Batin River and the Kuwaiti paleo-delta drainage system and discuss the integrated causative geological and climate change shadows. On the other hand, this study discussed the factors influencing the potentiality and recharge capacity of surface water in various landform units. This facilitated the discovery of new promising locations for groundwater exploration, including the Umm EI Rimmam depression and the narrow belts at the base of the AL-Atraf and Jal-Az Zor escarpments. The bottoms of these sites may need further excavation of their groundwater recharge capacity. Additionally, it discussed the impact of desalination and treated wastewater plant outlets on coastal environments. Brackish ground water is suitable for irrigation, but it works best with soil that has high permeability and good drainage. The bottoms of these sites may need further excavation of their groundwater recharge capacity. Additionally, it discussed the impact of desalination and treated wastewater plant outlets on coastal environments. Brackish ground water is suitable for irrigation, but it works best with soil that has high permeability and good drainage. An integrated mitigation measure (e.g., the proposed trench project track around the Al-Jahra area) and management policies were suggested to reduce the negative impact on the national socio-economic development that could make Kuwait more resilient to climate change. A multi-hazard assessment of the proposed mappable land use units was carried out, hoping its information could be used for future planning applications. The study area found the SWOT analytical model to be a useful tool for managing water resources. Furthermore, we applied the WEAP model to evaluate the balances of water supply (e.g., rainfall, groundwater fields, desalination, and wastewater plants) and water demand (e.g., domestic water, agriculture, and industry) under climate change conditions. Proposed effective management strategies based on the integration of the two models. The present study suggests that the implementation of a block- tariff system and a conservation scenario, such as widespread penetration of water-saving devices in households and businesses, could significantly save domestic and fresh water demands and their coastline.
520 3 _aمعظم دراسات المخاطر السابقة كانت تجرى على مستوى الكويت عامة ولأول مرة تجرى دراسة تفصيليه على منطقة استراتيجيه والتي تشمل أهم مناطق الامتداد العمراني الواعدة في الكويت، حيث انه معظم الدراسات السابقة تجري بطريقة اقليمية بنتائج غير موثوق بها بدليل تكرار المخاطر على الرغم من محاوله تطبيق طرق العلاج وهذا يرجع الى الاعتماد على تقارير مكاتب هندسية دون التدقيق في تفسير علمي لأصل هذه المخاطر و مسبباتها الحقيقية وتشخيص نتائجها السلبية القائمة والمتوقعة وخاصة مع التغيرات المناخية المتوقعة وبناء على ذلك فان اهم اهداف الرسالة هي النمذجة العلمية لمستقبل منطقة الدراسة، والبحث عن طرق وبدائل لعلاج المشكلة البيئية في المنطقة )مشاكل قائمة ، مشاكل متوقعه بسبب التغيرات المناخية.( ولذلك فقد اهتمت الدراسة بتطبيق الطرق الحديثة وتطبيق برامج الحاسوب الحديثة لاستقراء المرئيات الفضائية وللاستفادة منها في تشخيص المشكلة البيئية وتأييد هذا الاستنتاج بالدراسة الحقلية التفصيلية التي اجريت على المناطق لأول مرة، حيث تبين من المراجعة الحقلية لنتائج البرامج انه يوجد اختلاف بين هذه النتائج وبين واقع المنطقة حقليا في بعض المواقع، يرجع ذلك بسبب التغيرات البيئية والمناخية على سبيل المثال الانماط المطرية المختلفة، مع الوضع بالاعتبار بأن هذه التغيرات مستمرة. تم جمع عينات في الوحدات الصخرية المختلفة والتربة، والتي تمثل صخور الاساس للمناطق العمرانية القائمة مثل الجهراء وجابر الاحمد أو المناطق العمرانية الواعدة مثل المطلاع السكنية والتجارية الجديدة. تم اجراء فحص مخبري لعدة عينات تم جمعها في المرحلة الحقلية لهذه الدراسة، تم اجراء الفحص الميكروسكوبي، فحص الأشعة السينية، والتحليل الميكانيكي( التدرج الحبيبي )وذلك بهدف تحديد دقيق للخصائص الجيوتقنية لكل من صخور وتربة الاساس، كما تم الاستعانة بنتائج الجسات الهندسية لتحديد خصائص هذه التربة والصخور التحت سطحيه وعلاقة ذلك بمنسوب المياه الجوفية وتقييم المخاطر.
