Abstract

Distributed catchment models such as SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) are widely used to assess catchment characteristics and facilitate informed decisions for safeguarding water quantity and quality. This study applied SWAT to simulate monthly stream flow and loadings of total suspended sediment (TSS), total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) for five monitoring stations within the Onkaparinga catchment, and tested the models’ performance based on single-site or multi-site calibration.
