- W1580854598 abstract "Sediment yield refers to the amount of sediment exported by a basin over a period of time, which is also the amount that will enter a reservoir located at the downstream limit of the basin (Morris and Fan, 1998). The subject of sediment yield modelling has attracted the attention of many scientists but lack of data, resources and widely accepted methods to predict/estimate sediment yields are some of the barriers against this direction of research (Summer et al., 1992; Wasson 2002; Lawrence et al., 2004; Ndomba, 2007; Ndomba et al., 2005, 2008b, 2009; Shimelis et al., 2010). The sediment yield model evaluated in this paper is the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). It is hypothesized in the presented study cases that distributed and process based mathematical models such as SWAT could be a potential tool in predicting and estimating sediment yield especially at a catchment scale. Application of the distributed and processbased models could minimize the uncertainty resulting from assuming lumped, stationary and linear systems. Besides, the SWAT model has particular advantages for the study of basin change impacts and applications to basins with limited records (Bathurst, 2002; Ndomba, 2007). In principle, their parameters have a physical meaning and can be measured in the field, and therefore model validation can be concluded on the basis of a short field survey and a short time series of meteorological and hydrological data (Bathurst, 2002). SWAT was originally developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to predict the impact of land management practices on water, sediment and agricultural chemical yields in large ungauged basins (Arnold et al., 1995). The SWAT model has a long modelling history since it incorporates features of several Agriculture Research Service (ARS) models (Neitsch et al., 2005). The SWAT model is a catchment-scale continuous time model that operates on a daily time step with up to monthly/annual output frequency. The major components of the model include weather, hydrology, erosion, soil temperature, plant growth, nutrients, pesticides, land management, channel and reservoir routing. It divides a catchment into subcatchments. Each subcatchment is connected through a stream channel and further divided into a Hydrologic Response Unit (HRU). The HRU is a unique combination of a soil and vegetation types within the subcatchment. Sediment yield is estimated for each HRU with the Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation (MUSLE) (Williams, 1975) (Equation 1)." @default.
