Iran is located in semi-arid region and its annual rainfall average is about one-third of the world's rainfall. In recent decades, in addition to population growth, increasing global temperatures led to wide variations in the earth's surface and has resulted changes to the time and place of precipitation. According to close relationship between the hydrological cycle and climate system, any change in climate elements such as precipitation, can have an important impact on the availability of water. The purpose of this research is investigate effects of climate change on spatial and temporal variations of water supply in Tasoj basin by using of HADCM3 model results. In this regard, was used from down scaling data of A2 scenario and then recharge for the period 2030-2013 was predicted by HELP3 hydrological model. The results showed that amount recharge of groundwater in this basin is fluctuating from 12 to 67 mm per year under the A2 scenario. In the future, the western region of the study area will be lower recharge than in other parts of the basin. The reason will be the combined effects of geological and climatic factors. Because of the fine-grained sediments along temperature, evaporation increase and reduced precipitation will be effective in reducing the recharge of this region. Also cross-correlation between precipitation and groundwater recharge showed that southern half of the basin than the northern half will responded in a shorter time period to precipitation changes.

According to important role of climate parameters such as radiation, temperature, precipitation and the evaporation in water resource management, The purpose of the present investigation, is evaluation of climate change in Tasuj basin and Groundwater level response to these changes in period 2013-2030 by scenarios A2, B1, A1B. To do this research, was used the data of Chrchr and Sharafkhaneh evaporation stations and Khoy synoptic station for the period 1985-2012 and water levels data of tasuj basin for the years 2012-2000. Data of temperature, precipitation and sunshine with software LARS-WG and groundwater levels were predicted by artificial neural networks for mentioned period. The results revealed a decrease in precipitation and rise in temperature in each of the three studied scenarios.Maximum decline in water level in A2 scenario and minimum decline in groundwater levels will happen in B1 scenarios. Also study cross-correlation showed the impact of rainfall on groundwater levels is with time lag of 2 months.
