Model:SWAT 
Broad Application Category:hydrologic only 
Primary Application Category:DEM data resolution effects 
Secondary Application Category:hydrologic assessment 
Watershed Description:250 km^2 Broadhead River, located in New Jersey, U.S. 
Calibration Summary: 
Validation Summary: 
General Comments:Short paper that describes a limited assessment of DEM resolution effects on SWAT output: 1:24,000 & 1:250,000 USGS DEMs were analyzed; a flatter topography due to the 1:250,000 DEM results in delayed streamflow and less runoff volume.
