Impact of subwatershed partitioning on modeled source- and transport-limited sediment yields in an agricultural nonpoint source pollution model.(Statistical Data Included)
Journal of Soil and Water Conservation, March, 2001 by FitzHugh, T.W.; Mackay, D.S.
ABSTRACT: Distributed parameter hydrologic models have a potential use as tools for supporting watershed management policy. However, proper model implementation will require an understanding of how to integrate data collection and models in watersheds that have differing characteristics. This study investigated the behavior of one such model, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), in relation to the level of spatial aggregation of input data and the extent to which the watershed is source- or transport-limited in terms of sediment yield. The approach here was to first test SWAT in an agricultural watershed in Southern Wisconsin. Then, a series of computer model applications were generated with a range of sediment source- and transport-limited conditions. SWAT was...
