Jul 12, 2024 - Channel network of SWAT model for Limpopo River Basin
Compressed Archive - 364.1 KB - MD5: 2f8e9b149847c7e65c7483ef65b57a45
The development of a channel network is a crucial part of watershed delineation. It involves identifying the streams and rivers within a watershed based on terrain data. This process uses the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to simulate the flow of water across the landscape, determining where streams are likely to form.
