APPLICATIONS OF ARC SWAT MODEL FOR HYDROLOGICAL
MODELLING
2
• SWAT (Soil & Water Assessment Tool) is a river basin scale and continuous-time model
• Used to predict the impact of management on water, sediment, and agricultural chemical yields in large complex watersheds.
INTRODUCTION
3
In SWAT, a watershed is divided into multiple subwatersheds, and the subwatersheds are divided into Hydrological Response Units (HRUs)
HRU’s are aggregated land areas with in sub basinrepresent percentages of the subwatershed areacomprise of unique land use, soil and management
conditions

Benedini et al.,(2003) developed an inflow-outflow model for the Alban Hills using SWAT model.
For the simulation: SCS-Curve number-runoff, Hargreaves- evapotranspiration computations.
LITERATURE REVIEW
11
Pierluigi et al.,(2003) presented the application of SWAT model to evaluate the water budget for several sardinian catchments and to predict future scenarios.
Parameters: land use, soil type, surface water systems, etc.
For daily weather inputs, statistical analysis of the sardinian climatic data has been carried out.

Jain et al.,(2010) selected the swat model for the estimation of runoff and sediment yield for an intermediate watershed of Satluj river, Himachal pradesh.
Parameters: Digital elevation model, Landuse, Soil, hydro-meteorological data.
13
Tesfahunegn et al.,(2012) presented the application of SWAT model to identify hotspot soil degradation sub-catchments.
Based on estimated runoff, sediment yield and nutrient losses in the Mai-Negus catchment, northern Ethiopia
parameters: digital elevation model (DEM), land use-cover, soils and daily observed weather data.

CASE STUDY-1
Ashok et al.,(2003) analysed the potential applicability of SWAT in managing check dams constructed as on-stream reservoirs and impoundment structures.

Study area: BANHA, Jharkhand, India.

o Divided into 5 sub watersheds based on the drainage and land use pattern.
o Calibrated the model for 1996 and then for nine years (1993-2001).
o Validated by comparing the measured water yield and sediment load with their measured counterparts for the year 1996.

CASE STUDY-2
Varanou et al.,(2003) presented a method for quantifying the impacts from specific land use changes on the runoff . The water cycle was simulated with the use of the SWAT, and the land use change scenarios were created using the Land Use Development Model (LADEMO).
23
Study area: Pinios catchment in Thessaly, Greece.The result of a (LADEMO) model run is a digital map
of future land use.Land use change scenarios:
Expansion of agricultural land
Deforestation
Expansion of urban areas

26
Swat model can be effectively used for • development of inflow-outflow model, • estimating available water resources, • managing check dams, • quantifying the impacts from land use changes on the
runoff and • modelling the long term impacts of best management
practices in watershed.
SUMMARY
27
Check dams contribute to enormous reduction of sediment transport from the watershed.
The simulated and observed sediment transport from the watershed compares closely and thus shows a strong applicability of the SWAT model in accounting for these processes in small watersheds.
SWAT makes an accurate estimation of the deposited sediments in check dams.
The land use change which is causing a greater modification of daily and monthly total discharge is the change introduced by the deforestation scenario.
