ABSTRACT
For considering integration and sustainability in water resources management, it is necessary to think over the social, economic, and environmental impacts of decisions. This integration in planning and management, especially in urban areas, needs a systematic approach, considering all the interactions among the elements of the system and with the outside world. Simulation of urban water dynamics will give the collective impacts of all possible water-related urban processes on issues such as human health, environmental protection, quality of receiving waters, and urban water demand. Individual processes are then planned and managed in a way that the collective impact, with due consideration of the interaction among processes, is improved as much as possible.
