Abstract

Blemish of subsidence and land ruptures such as destroying aquifer systems, damaging structures and disordering water main, are usually irreparable and expensive. One of the regions with a high rate subsidence in Iran is the Yazd-Ardakan plain that subsides with a maximum rate of 12 cm per year based on levelling and InSAR observation. It is obvious that such a high rate subsidence is the result of water extra exploiting and groundwater levels at piezometric wells confirm this in the region. Management of water drafting in this region is a necessary work in this region.
