Cover Story: Groundwater vulnerability in arid regions is increasingly influenced by land use changes and climate variability. This study assesses groundwater vulnerability and contamination risks in Arizona's Verde River Basin and Prescott Active Management Area using hybrid, modified DRASTIC index-overlay models. By integrating land use, climate data, and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for refined weighting, the models improve predictive accuracy. Results reveal nitrate contamination risks in high-vulnerability zones and the susceptibility of karst aquifers to pollution. Recommendations include adaptive management strategies, land use controls, public awareness campaigns, and routine integration of land use and climate data to support sustainable groundwater management in arid and semi-arid regions.
