16 Results and Discussion

17 Results and discussion 1 Model calibration for daily streamflow and sediment NSE=0.82 R 2 =0.83 NSE=0.59 R 2 = y = x R² =

18 18 Results and discussion 2 Time-varying sensitivity of HYDROLOGIC parameters 1 Base flow AGWRC, KVARY ET, water loss LZETP, BASETP, DEEPFR, CEPSC Parameter groups Interflow INTFW, IRC 2 4 Moisture redistribution LZSN, UZSN, INFILT 3

19 1 Base flow 19

20 1 Base flow High sensitivities in the full period Especially high in dry periods More than 180 days for identification Base flow is critical Should be calibrated Long length of observation

21 2 Interflow

22 2 Interflow Highest sensitivities in wet period Strong correlation with precipitation Monitoring plan arranged according to the sensitive areas days for identification

23 3 Moisture redistribution

24 3 Moisture redistribution LZS more steady UZS active in the first year

25 3 Moisture distribution

26 3 Moisture distribution Active in the first year when water fill up the lower storages Percolation & Infiltration more important than water movement into IFS

27 4 ET

28 4 ET

29 4 ET ET from LZS is critical Long length of monitoring required Impact on wet periods

30 30 Results and discussion 2 Time-varying sensitivity of SEDIMENT parameters 1 Detachment KRER, JRER Controllable SMPF, COVER Parameter groups Washoff KSER, JSER 2 4 Scour/deposition TAUCD, TAUCS 3

31 TSS (mg/l) 1 Detachment

32 1 Detachment Erodibility of the Soil Type Strong correlation with Precipitation

33 TSS (mg/l) 2 Washoff

34 2 Washoff Effects of surface condition and flow Sensitive in most of the time 45 days or more required for identification Management practices impact on KSER

35 TAU 2 Scour/deposition

36 TAU 3 Scour/deposition

37 TAU 3 Scour/deposition Determine the Sediment dynamics in reach Sensitivity and evaluation scales Varies as Bed Shear Stress changes Practices in the channels make sense

38 TSS(mg/L) 4 Controllable

39 4 Controllable Similar to P and C factors in USLE High sensitivity during the wet season Management practices are effective when evaluated in scales of more than 60 days

40 Summary

41 Summary At what time period specific parameters are sensitive is defined. Over what length of measurement to maximize the sensitivity signals is defined. The results help support measurement campaigns, calibration, and management plan.
