Application of SWAT Model in Assessing the Influence of Herbage Covering to Runoff Formation Process in Ma River Basin
Abstract:
The SWAT model and GIS technique were applied to calculate the runoff in the Ma River basin, Vietnam. The study focused on assessing the influence of herbage coverage to runoff formation process. In this integration, GIS supplies SWAT input data included elevation, soil properties, land use and weather data and creates graphical user interface, while SWAT operates input data, delineates watershed, simulates different physical processes, displays output data as runoff. Based on the model testing and parameter calibrating, two scenarios of decreasing and increasing 30% of forest coverage are built to assess the impact to runoff changing. The results have important guiding significance for the planning, management and sustainable utilization of river basin water resources.
