International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software

This study aims to investigate the enhanced accessibility and scalability of the SWAT-DEG model deployed as a cloud service. Frequent monitoring of hydrologic processes and simulation modeling on short (i.e., sub-daily) time steps are essential tools for effective stream rehabilitation and restoration on first and second order streams with drainage areas less than 20 square kilometers. The SWAT-DEG model was developed to assess how changes in climate and land use beget changes in watershed processes such as runoff, sheet and rill erosion, channel geomorphology and sedimentation. Deployment of the model on a user-friendly and scalable web-platform enables a broader population …
