Abstract
This paper reports the long-term water balance analysis under future meteorological condition using the hydrological model in Lake Victoria basin and discusses sustainable operation of the Lake. A previous work reported a new dam constructed for hydropower in 2000 partially caused the drop in lake's water level. The discussion on the future water balance in this basin is required to keep the functions of this Lake. We conducted hydrological simulations using data from MRI-AGCM3.2S projections biased with GPCC and GSMaP in three durations. MRI-AGCM3.2S showed increasing of precipitation in large area of this basin, which causes increasing of runoff. That is why lake's water level keeps higher than the current one.
