Increment of food production may give negative impacts to environment. Background Keyword<Water・Food・Environment> Prediction of Global Warming Impact in Southeast Asia(IPCC) Global Warming leads significant decrease of crop production, water pollution in the downstream, inequality of water utilization, and increase of our health crisis. How peoples adapt to these problems Big social problems!! 3 We will need to propose the new river basin model in Asia (Indonesia ) that takes into consideration the balance of water, food and health in response to climate change.

Characteristics of Citarum river basin: The Citarum River is the largest river in West Java. It is 350 km long and has a catchment area of 6000 km2 . The annual mean precipitation varies from 1800 to 2800 mm/year. In this basin, 70% of the annual precipitation falls in the rainy season, from November to March. Bandung city is located on the upper part of the river, and there are three large dams on the river (Saguling dam upstream, Cirata dam in the middle of the river and Jatiluhur dam downstream). The Citarum River is the most important river in West Java, supplying water for Bandung and Jakarta. Approximately 80% of the domestic water in Jakarta is withdrawn from the Citarum River downstream of Jatiluhur dam . In the future, climate change may have an undesirable impact on water availability in this basin. Therefore, evaluation of available water resources is quite necessary to manage water resources effectively. .
