| Model: | SWAT |
| Broad Application Category: | hydrologic & pollutant |
| Primary Application Category: | climate data effects |
| Secondary Application Category: | Hyrologic Unit Model of the U.S. (HUMUS) application |
| Watershed Description: | 863 km^2 Big Sandy Creek, 196 km^2 Walnut Creek, 1,883 km^2 San Bernard River, 2,227 km^2 Village Creek and 4,280 km^2 Bosque River, which are all located in Texas, U.S.; 3,050 km^2 Sondu River, which drains into Lake Victoria in southwest Kenya; and an application for the entire conterminous U.S. |
| Calibration Summary: | Monthly (1979-88) E value range for three Sondu Basin scenarios: -.72 to -.69 |
| Validation Summary: | Monthly (1995-99) E value ranges for 4 Texas watersheds (uncalibrated): raingauge = -7.42 - .22 NEXRAD = -.75 - .59 --------------------------- Monthly (1989-97) E value range for three Sondu Basin scenarios: -.08 to .10 |
| General Comments: | This study reports results of SWAT simulations for four unrelated applications; one for the entire conterminous U.S., two for watersheds in Texas, and the other for a watershed in Kenya. |
