Effects of spatial aggregation of soil spatial information on watershed hydrological modelling
Many researchers have examined the impact of detailed soil spatial information on hydrological modelling due to the fact that such information serves as important input to hydrological modelling, yet is difficult and expensive to obtain. Most research has focused on the effects at single scales; however, the effects in the context of spatial aggregation across different scales are largely missi...
متن کاملModeling the Impacts of Spatial Heterogeneity in the Castor Watershed on Runoff, Sediment, and Phosphorus Loss Using SWAT: I. Impacts of Spatial Variability of Soil Properties
Spatial accuracy of hydrologic modeling inputs influences the output from hydrologic models. A pertinent question is to know the optimal level of soil sampling or how many soil samples are needed for model input, in order to improve model predictions. In this study, measured soil properties were clustered into five different configurations as inputs to the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) ...
متن کاملArcMap Tool for Pre-processing SSURGO Soil Database for ArcSWAT
The Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) database provides the highest resolution for a county-wide soil database in the United States. AvSWAT and ArcSWAT are developed for using soil input prepared in a format of the State Soil and Geographic (STATSGO) database. The available SSURGO processing extension tool currently works only with AvSWAT but not with ArcSWAT. The purpose of this study is to deve...
متن کاملEffects of distribution-based parameter aggregation on a spatially distributed agricultural nonpoint source pollution model
Accurate predictions of sediment yield from distributed models of runoff and sediment yield depends in part of how well matched the model structure is to input data spatial representation. This study investigated how model structure and input data representation affect sediment predictions made using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). The study focused on the integration of two specific...
متن کاملSpatial resolution of soil data and channel erosion effects on SWAT model predictions of flow and sediment
Water quality modeling efforts for developing total maximum daily loads often use geographical information system data of varying quality in watershed-scale models and have shown varying impacts on model results. Several streams in the southern Piedmont are listed for sediment total maximum daily loads. The objective of this study was to test the effect of spatial resolution of soil data on the...
