HSPF
Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN (HSPF) is a comprehensive package
for simulation of watershed hydrology and water quality for both conventional
and toxic organic pollutants. HSPF incorporates watershed-scale ARM and NPS
models into a basin-scale analysis framework that includes fate and transport in
one dimensional stream channels. It is the only comprehensive model of watershed
hydrology and water quality that allows the integrated simulation of land and
soil contaminant runoff processes with In-stream hydraulic and sediment-chemical
interactions. The result of this simulation is a time history of the runoff flow
rate, sediment load, and nutrient and pesticide concentrations, along with a
time history of water quantity and quality at any point in a watershed. HSPF
simulates three sediment types (sand, silt, and clay) in addition to a single
organic chemical and transformation products of that chemical.

This patch replaces the file XHSPFX.EXE from an existing HSPF 11.0
installation in order to fix "Year 2000" compliance problems. This patch
should only be applied to a current HSPF 11.0 installation. Save the
file HSP11Y2K.EXE in the existing HSPF11 directory (e.g., C:\HSPF11) on
the target system. Execute it to extract the updated XHSPFX.EXE file and
overwrite the existing version. |
BASINS (Better Assessment Science Integrating point & Non-point Sources)
Version 4.0 and 3.1
Latest updates
Both BASINS 4 and 3.1 have an automatic update feature in the software to
indicate to the user that an update is available. The
latest update for
BASINS 4 is dated March 2009. The latest update for BASINS 3.1 is
Update 8
released November 2006.
Data from the web
New and updated datasets (see
metadata) have
been added to the data download directory for each 8-digit watershed or
HUC in the lower 48 states,
Alaska (19), Hawaii (20), and Puerto Rico with the U.S. Virgin Islands (21).
Data by HUCs can be
found on the web. Use "Surf Your
Watershed" to find and locate HUCs.
The DEM
(Digital Elevation Model) shapefile and grid datasets can be added to BASINS
before or after the BASINS project has been created.
The
National Elevation Dataset (NED), a higher resolution elevation grid, tiled
by HUC boundary is also available.
The GIRAS
landuse/landcover has been removed from the core data and is now available
seperately as a shapefile for each HUC.
Weather data by states for the models can be found at
/ost/ftp/basins/wdm_data/.
The SWAT model in BASINS requires
STATSGO
data.
