The potential of a Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS) for estimating water and sediment yields was assessed in a large (92.46 km2) experimental catchment in the Damodar-Barakar basin. The SDSS is based on a SWAT model and was operated under prevailing resource management conditions. Application of the proposed SDSS predicted average water and sediment yields of 383.37 mm yr-1 and 21.28 t ha-1 yr-1 were predicted as against actual observations of 390.69 mm yr-1 and 25.35 t ha-1 yr-1 for the validation periods 1981-1983; 1985-1989 and 1991. Simulations of the annual dynamics of total water and sediment yields showed good to moderately good correlation coefficients of 0.83 and 0.65; model efficiency coefficients of 0.54 and 0.70; mean relative errors of... |
