| Model: | SWAT-G |
| Broad Application Category: | hydrologic only |
| Primary Application Category: | model and/or data interface |
| Secondary Application Category: | land use change |
| Watershed Description: | 59.8 km^2 Aar River, located in Germany. |
| Calibration Summary: | daily 1986-87 E = 0.85 (r = 0.69) |
| Validation Summary: | daily 1983-84 E values = .64 (r = .79) |
| General Comments: | SWAT-G was interfaced with the Proland agric. economic model and the YELL ecological model. The authors report effects of four average field size scenarios (.5, .75, 1, and 2 ha) on land use, bird nest distribution and habitat, labor and agricultural value, and hydrologic response. |
