"SWAT Modeling to Assess Water Availability in the Command Area of the Gandak River Basin, India"

"SWAT Modeling to Assess Water Availability in the Command Area of the Gandak River Basin, India" by by Zeenat Ara, Ramakar Jha, and A.R. Quaff has been published in the Journal of Water Management Modeling.

It is essential to analyze water availability in a sub-basin for the management of water resources. In this study, a sub-basin of the Gandak River, with an area of 973.54 km2 has been selected to study water availability using a SWAT model with remote sensing and GIS support. The study suggests that the SWAT model could be a promising tool to predict water balance and water yield to support policies and decision-making for sustainable water management at the sub-basin level.
