Abstract:Hydrological modeling in decision-making is particularly challenging in tropical countries such as Brazil. There are numerous modeling tools; however, many applications have focused on watersheds with a total area of <20,000km2. Here we tailored a customized SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) ecohydrological model application using the SWAT CUP tool for calibration and validation of the Rio das Velhas, a relatively large, complex Brazilian basin (~28,000km2). The Rio das Velhas is the longest tributary o… Show more
