Hydrologic modelling

Improved SWAT model with calibrated vegetation growth

Coupled Effects of Future Climate and Land Use Scenarios on Water Balance

What is the effect of future climate change and land use change on water balance in Australia catchment?

Project future changes on water resource using XAJ model

Projected changes in runoff (%), actual evapotranspiration (%) and soil moisture (%) in future under based on 28 GCMs compared with baseline at monthly time scale.

Calibrate SWAT model with MODIS LAI

Spatial mapping of runoff changes with improved SWAT

SWAT-T HRU mean LAI compared with smoothed MODIS LAI and default SWAT LAI in calibration and validation periods
