Prediction of sediment yield from catchments is essential in the investigation of reservoir sedimentation and other hydrological and geological studies. Many methods have been used in the prediction of sediment yield. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) is a newly developed model that can be applied to rural watershed. SWAT model has used Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation (MUSLE) in sedim...

Microscopic peculiarities stemming from a temperature increase in subcutaneous adipose tissue (sWAT) after applying a radio-frequency (RF) current, must be strongly dependent on the type of sWAT. This effect is connected with different electrical conductivities of pathways inside (triglycerides in adipocytes) and outside (extra-cellular matrix) the cells and to the different weighting of these ...

Estimation of water yield and water balance in a river catchment is critical to the sustainable management of water resources at watershed level in any country. Therefore, in the present study, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) interfaced with Geographical Information System (GIS) was applied as a tool to predict water balance and water yield of a catchment area in Nigeria. The catchment ar...

Original scientific paper Hydrological simulation in meteorological ungauged areas has always been a difficult problem for the study on atmospheric and hydrological coupling; meanwhile, it is also one of the important factors that restrict model development and basin water resource knowledge. To analyze the mechanism of atmospheric and hydrological coupling, this study quantitatively evaluated ...

The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model has emerged as one of the most widely used water quality watershed- and river basin-scale models worldwide, applied extensively for a broad range of hydrologic and/or environmental problems. The international use of SWAT can be attributed to its flexibility in addressing water resource problems, extensive networking via dozens of training workshop...

Developments in computer technology have revolutionized the study of hydrologic systems and water resources management. Several computer-based hydrologic/water quality models have been developed for applications in hydrologic modelling and water resources studies. Distributed parameter models, necessary for basin-scale studies, have large input data requirements. Geographic information systems ...

This paper describes the efforts of Stanford University’s Aerospace Robotics Laboratory (ARL), the Palo Alto – Mountain View (California) Regional Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team, and the MLB Company to bridge the gap between the perception of potential uses of autonomous robots in police SWAT environments and the reality of their application. The ARL researchers were given freedom of m...

Phosphorus adsorption by a water treatment residual was tested through Langmuir and linear sorption isotherms and applied in the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). This study uses laboratory and greenhouse experimental Phosphorus data to evaluate the performance of a modified version of SWAT for high P concentration simulation development. A combination of vegetative filter strips (VFS) and...

Cholecalciferol is known to be deposited in human adipose tissue, but it is not known whether 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) is found in detectable concentrations. Therefore, our objective was to determine whether 25(OH)D is detectable in subcutaneous white adipose tissue (SWAT) in overweight and obese persons enrolled in a twelve week energy restricted diet. Baseline and post-intervention glute...
