Prediction of groundwater table through specific models, provide a valuable information for water
resources management and consumption planning. Among the different available methods, the
multivariate nonlinear regression is of utmost importance for prediction of hydrological phenomena.
The data bases of this research were the amounts of precipitation amounts, water table elevation and
water consumptions in monthly time scale for the period of 2001- 2011. The cross correlation analysis
indicated that the one lagged monthly precipitation as well as the two lagged monthly consumptions
values had the highest impacts on water table elevation with the determination coefficients of 0.39 and
0.86, respectively. Then, the general relationship of these three variables obtained with R2=0.87 and
root mean square error (RMSE) =0.35m through a multivariate nonlinear regression analysis. For
prediction of the water table elevation in the coming years, initially, the consumptions and precipitation
data extended up to 2014, using ANN and Thomas-firing methods, respectively. So, the outcome of
putting them into regression equation gave the water table elevation. On the other hand, the artificial
neural network was used to predict the water table elevation, for which, the resulted values of R2 and
RMSE were 0.82 and 0.39m, respectively. The comparison of two methods showed that the
multivariate nonlinear regression model represented more accurate results in predicting the elevation of
water table, in the studied plain.
