A GIS-based method is proposed for computation of temporal variation of sediment yield during isolated storm events. Data from three Indian catchments, namely Karso and Nagwa in Jharkhand and Kharkari in Rajasthan, have been used. The Integrated Land and Water Information System (ILW1S) GIS package was used for (a) catchment discretization into cell areas using grid networks, (b) evaluation of ...
