WATERSHED SIMULATION MODEL USING MATLAB

Abstract

This paper aim to set-up a watershed simulation model to compute various hydrological variables on MATLAB platform. The paper aims to develop a simple model for hydrological processes. The simplicity of model allow to set it up on any watershed with relatively ease, it could be automatic calibrated using state of the art optimization algorithms. This model is a lumped-conceptual hydrological model. To check validity of model, this paper also runs simulation of a hydrological model on MATLAB and compare the simulated result to observed value of stream flow.
