Abstract
:
Seawater intrusion into groundwater aquifers is an issue that adversely affects freshwater resources and infrastructure. This phenomenon particularly, exacerbated in coastal cities through the exploitation of groundwater for agricultural activities and development. Determining hazardous zones and the extent of seawater intrusion are both critical to identify the affected areas and to contribute to developing appropriate solutions. This study aims to assess the extent of seawater intrusion into the coastal aquifers in the Al-Qunfudah province. The objective is to identify areas of vulnerability by employing geographic information system (GIS) to generate maps of seawater intrusion into groundwater by using a groundwater quality index specific for seawater intrusion (GQISWI), and thereby build a variogram model. GIS can help to transform the results of complex models and make them more visible through visual representation. GIS proves to be a viable tool for decision-makers. The effect range map shows three categories: low, moderate, and high. These maps can be used as preliminary maps to plan detailed studies to monitor interference as well as sustainable land use planning and groundwater management in the Al-Qunfudah Province.
