Demonstration and Validation of BASINS Watershed Modeling System Enhanced for Military Installations - AP Hill

Abstract

The BASINS Modeling System is a GIS-based system and features a well-developed interface for different dynamic watershed models, and numerous pre- and post-processing tools that are shared by the models. Two types of enhancements, using the Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN (HSPF) as the primary modeling code, were developed for the BASINS modeling system for military-specific applications: (1) data and methodologies that address key military land stressors (i.e., urban encroachment, prescribed burning, timber harvesting, military training, and unpaved roads), and (2) software refinements related to model linkages and algorithms.
