Abstract
Systems analysis in water resources offers a philosophical approach to studying the interdependence within the hydrologic, environmental, and economic elements under one umbrella — with an ultimate goal of improving system performance. The systems approach is generally defined as an orderly way of looking at all angles of a complex problem, with emphasis on the interrelationship rather than the analysis of separate parts of a given phenomenon (Albertson et al. 1971).
