농촌유역의 수질예측을 위한 BASINS의 적용 - HSPF모형을 중심으로 -

Application of BASINS for the water quality prediction in rural watersheds - on HSPF model -

For the water quality management of stream and lake, it is important to estimate and control nonpoint source loading to meet the water quality standard. So, integrated watershed management is required. BASINS is a multipurpose environmental analysis system for use by regional, state, and local agencies in performing watershed and water quality based studies. BASINS was developed by the USEPA to facilitate examination of environmental information, to support analysis of environmental systems and to provide a framework for examining management alternatives. BASINS contains HSPF which is one of the watershed runoff model. By using HSPF, nonpoint source loading from upper stream watershed was estimated. As a result, the simulated runoff was in a good agreement with the observed data and indicated reasonable applicability for whole watershed.
