PS 723 - Hydrologic Modeling

Credits: 1
This course will involve simulation of water, sediment and chemical movement at watershed scale using the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model.  The course will cover different methods used to estimate and measure the surface hydrologic processes (infiltration, evapotranspiration, runoff, peak runoff rate, soil water erosion, and chemical movement) include both field scale measurement method and empirical model. Students will use the process based hydrologic (SWAT) model with a better understanding of the underlying process to predict the stream flow and water quality parameters at watershed scale. The course involves detail understanding of the step involved in modeling, model setup, sensitivity analysis, calibration, validation and long-term scenario analyses. Corequisites: PS 723L . Prerequisites: PS 103 or PS 543 . Notes: Sections of this course are provided online through the Agriculture Interactive Distance Education Alliance.
