This study develops the water resources management model for conjunctive use of surface and subsurface water using a fuzzy\r\ninference system (FIS). The study applies the FIS to allocate the demands of surface and subsurface water. Subsequently, water\r\nallocations in the surface water system are simulated by using linear programming techniques, and the responses of subsurface\r\nwater system with respect to pumping are forecasted by using artificial neural networks. The operating rule for the water systems is\r\nthat themore abundant water system supplies more water. By using the fuzzy rule, the FIS conjunctive usemodel easily incorporates\r\nexpert knowledge and operational polices into water resources management.Theresult indicates that the FISmodel ismore effective\r\nand efficient when compared with the decoupled conjunctive use and simulation-optimizationmodels. Furthermore, the FIS model\r\nis an alternative way to obtain the conjunctive use policies between surface and subsurface water.
