Watershed Model Output - Discharge, Sediment, and Nutrient Loads for Perdido and St.Andrew Watersheds

The Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to simulate historic and future estimates of freshwater flow, sediment load, nutrient (N,P) load, and carbon load to the Gulf from Perdido Bay watershed and Saint Andrew watershed. Loadings were estimated at multiple locations at each watershed. Those loadings were input to the Bay hydrodynamic and water quality model. The future runs were conducted using the land use forecast data provided by Dr. Dwivedi and future downscaled climate data by Dr. Kumar.
