Analysis of the change in groundwater used as a drinking and irrigation water source is of critical importance in terms of monitoring aquifers, planning water resources, energy production, combating climate change, and agricultural production. Therefore, it is necessary to model groundwater level (GWL) fluctuations to monitor and predict groundwater storage. Artificial intelligence-based models in water resource management have become prevalent due to their proven success in hydrological studies.

Predicting groundwater level (GWL) fluctuations, which act as a reserve water reservoir, particularly in arid and semi-arid climates, is vital in water resources management and planning. Within the scope of current research, a novel hybrid algorithm is proposed for estimating GWL values in the Tabriz plain of Iran by combining the artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm with newly developed nature-inspired Coot and Honey Badger metaheuristic optimization algorithms. Various combinations of meteorological data such as temperature, evaporation, and precipitation, previous GWL values, and the month and year values of the data were used to evaluate the algorithm's success.

Modeling stream flows is vital for water resource planning and flood and drought management. In this study, the performance of hybrid models constructed by combining least square support vector machines (LSSVM), empirical model decomposition (EMD), and particle swarm optimization (PSO) methods in modeling monthly streamflow was evaluated. For establishing the models, 42 years of monthly average streamflow data was used in two hydrometer stations located in the Konya Closed Basin, covering 1964 to 2005.

Revealing the dynamic link between rainfall and runoff, which are the main components of the hydrological cycle, is significant for the planning and managing water resources, disaster risk management, and construction of water structures. This study used feed-forward neural network (FFNN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and long short-term memory (LSTM) network to model the rainfall-runoff relationship. Various variations of lagged precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, and flows were presented as inputs, and the flow values of Munzur River were estimated as outputs.

Hotter and drier weather conditions due to climate change negatively affect water resources and agricultural production. For this reason, it is vital to analyze the change in potential evapotranspiration (PET) values, which is one of the most important parameters related to plant growth and agricultural irrigation planning. This study analyses the trends and changes in monthly and annual PET values between 1965 and 2018 at Erzincan, Bayburt and Gümüşhane meteorological stations in Turkey.

With the effect of global warming, the frequency of floods, one of the most important natural disasters, increases, and this increases the damage it causes to people and the environment. Flood routing models play an important role in predicting floods so that all necessary precautions are taken before floods reach the region, loss of life and property in the region is prevented, and agricultural lands are protected. This research aims to compare the performance of hybrid machine learning models such as least-squares support vector machine technique hybridized with particle swarm optimization, empirical mode decomposition, variational mode decomposition, and discrete wavelet transform processes for flood routing estimation models in Ordu, Eastern Black Sea Basin, Türkiye.

Accurate prediction of evapotranspiration values is important in planning agricultural irrigation, crop growth research, and hydrological modeling. This study is aimed at estimating monthly evapotranspiration (ET) values in Hakkâri province by combining support vector regression, bagged tree, and boosted tree methods with wavelet transform. For this purpose, precipitation, runoff, surface net solar radiation, air temperatures, and previous ET values were divided into sub-signals with various mother wavelets such as Daubechies 4, Meyer, and Symlet 2 and presented as input to machine learning (ML) algorithms.
