Evaluating the Performance of Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) in a Snow-Dominated Climate (Case Study: Azna–Aligoudarz Basin, Iran)

This study aims to investigate the capability of the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model in hydrologic simulation of a cold and mountainous climate, the Azna–Aligoudarz Basin, Iran. For this purpose, daily climatic data from the Aligoudarz synoptic station, discharge data from the Marbare hy...
