The land use changes study and precipitation-runoff modelling using HEC-HMS, Case Study: Babolrood basin

Authors

Abstract:

Abstract Change in land use pattern influenced hydrological processes in basin and disrupt the normal balance of water flow. In the present research, hydrological parameters change of Babul Rod watershed basin has been that investigated concluded of land use changes in 1988 and 2009. To determine land use changes of Babul Rod watershed basin we has recruited TM satellite images 1988(1367) year and ETM 2009(1388) year with factor of spatial resolution of 30 meters that using stratified classification classified into four types: urban, land of combined(urban, garden and garden spaces), agriculture-horticulture and bare land. According to the classification, forest and combined lands(agriculture, garden) of Babul Rod basin have encountered with area reduce and pasture and urban lands use have encountered with increase area. The HEC-HMS model is used for investigating the impact of land use changes of Babul Rod on hydrology cycle and factors quantify of hydrology Balance of the investigating watershed basin and analyzing relationship. The results of this model has shown clearly: reducing the precipitation losses, increasing elevation and runoff coefficient, increasing maximum rate of flow and increasing medium rate of flow, the impact of Babul Rod river morphologic changes and land use of its territory on flood factors.

Land use changes detection and spatial distribution using digital and satellite data, case study: Farim drainage basin, Northern of Iran

Land use change may influence many natural phenomena and ecological processes, including runoff, soil erosion, sedimentation and soil conditions. Decreasing of forest area in the North of Iran is one of the critical problems in recent years. The aims of this study are to detect land use changes between 1967 to 2002 using satellite images of Land Sat 7 ETM+ (2002), aerial photos and digital topo...

Simulation of Rainfall-Runoff Process Using Green-Ampt Method and HEC-HMS Model (Case Study: Abnama Watershed, Iran)

Estimation of surface runoff in a watershed based on the rate of received precipitation and quantifying discharge at outlet is important in hydrologic studies. In this study, HEC-HMS hydrological model version 3.4 was used to simulate rainfall-runoff process in Abnama watershed located in south of Iran. To compute infiltration, rainfall excess conversion to runoff and flow routing, methods like...

Runoff characteristics and application of HEC-HMS for modelling stormflow hydrograph in an oil palm catchment.

Rainfall-runoff processes in a small oil palm catchment (8.2 ha) in Johor, Malaysia were examined. Storm hydrographs show rapid responses to rainfall with a short time to peak. The estimated initial hydrologic loss for the oil palm catchment is 5 mm. Despite the low initial loss, the catchment exhibits a high proportion of baseflow, approximately 54% of the total runoff. On an event basis, the ...
