الملخص الإنجليزي

-The Dead Sea (DS) basin plays a major role for regional economic development (industry, tourism and agriculture) in Jordan.

Different studies stated that the water level of the DS is dropping an average of 3 feet per year.

Accordingly there is a need to provide accurate and reliable estimates for the water level to help the researchers and geologists of the DS to make different kind of studies giving results, so they can understand the state of the DS and its behavior and stop the dropping of the DS water level.

Neural Networks (NN) are computational models with the capacity to learn, to generalize, or to organize data based on parallel processing.

Among all kinds of networks, the most widely used are BackPropagation (BP), Levenberg-Marquardt (L-M), and Generalized Regression Neural Networks (GRNN) that are capable of representing non-linear functional mappings between inputs and outputs.

Different NN based DS water level prediction models are built and compared to determine the most effective neural networks work in prediction.

It is known that DS water level depends on many factors such as Air temperature, Salinity, Humidity and other environmental information.

Our NN models capture different subsets of those effects, reflect them within our models to identify the most effective set, which has significant impact on the water level of DS.

Finally, we can say that the proposed GRNN model provides best significant performance results comparing with other NN models using Mean Square Error (MSE).
