Hydrological Modeling using Soil and Water Assessment Tool
Description
Description:
This training offers a comprehensive introduction to the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), a widely used hydrologic model for simulating the impact of land use, climate, and soil management practices on water resources. The training is designed to help engineers, researchers, and graduate students understand SWAT’s applications in watershed-scale hydrologic modeling. Participants will gain hands-on experience in setting up, running, and interpreting the SWAT model using ArcSWAT interface integrated with ArcGIS.
What Will I Learn?
- Basics of watershed hydrology and SWAT model structure
- Data requirements and preprocessing for SWAT
- SWAT model setup using QSWAT interface
- Simulation and result interpretation
- Introduction to sensitivity analysis and calibration
- Real-world applications and case studies
