| Abstract: |
| Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT)
is an efficient model to simulate hydrology and water
quality in large watersheds. During the past decades,
SWAT has been used as a decision support tool to
evaluate environmental effects of land usage change,
BMPs, and hydraulic structures in Great Lakes wa-
tersheds. In addition, it has been increasingly used
to predict water resources under different climate
change scenarios. This paper briefly reviewed SWAT
applications in various watersheds draining into the
Great Lakes and intended to provide readers with
insights regarding water quality issues in the Great
Lakes concerned by researchers and capability of
SWAT in dealing with those problems. Future devel-
opment of SWAT with respect to dealing with cold
region climate and vegetation conditions was also
discussed |
