| Title | Glacio-Hydrological Modelling of Dudh Koshi River Basin, Nepal |
| Summary | This study analyzed the hydrological regime of a glaciated alpine catchment; Dudh Koshi River Basin, Nepal using SWAT, a process based hydrological model and a degree-day model, T-index. Temperature and Precipitation trends were also studied based on past time-series hydro-meteorological datasets. The simulated runoffs from both models were compared against the observed discharge and the temperature and precipitation trends were analyzed statistically. The results indicated that Dudh Koshi catchment is very sensitive to increase in temperature and precipitation changes and the overall runoff is most likely to increase in the future for a certain period of time along with extreme changes in glacier areas and higher frequency of climate-induced disasters. |
