Separation and Attribution of Impacts of Changes in Land Use and Climate on Hydrological Processes

Summary/Abstract

Utilizing the SWAT model, this research simulates hydrological components such as streamflow, evapotranspiration, soil water, and water yield under different land use and climate scenarios. The findings indicate that while changes in land use alone have minor effects, variations in climate significantly alter hydrological responses. The study emphasizes the importance of considering both land use and climatic changes when evaluating their impacts on watershed hydrology, advocating for comprehensive management strategies to mitigate these effects.
