SCS-CN Based Time-Distributed Sediment Yield Model

Journal of Hydrology, 2008
A sediment yield model is developed to estimate the temporal rates of sediment yield from rainfall events on natural watersheds. The model utilizes the SCS-CN based infiltration model for computation of rainfall-excess rate, and the SCS-CN-inspired proportionality concept for computation of sediment-excess.

Improved SCS-CN–Inspired Model

Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2012
AbstractThe present study enhances the Soil Conservation Service curve number (SCS-CN) predictions by improving the model structure, considering the following issues of concern: implementation of antecedent moisture condition procedure, fixation of initial abstraction ratio (λ) at 0.2, usage of the potential maximum retention parameter, and ...

Another Look at SCS-CN Method

Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2001
The Soil Conservation Service-curve number (SCS-CN) method is analytically derived and its basis in the Mockus method analyzed. A modification and a general form of the SCS-CN method are proposed. Using data from five watersheds, the existing SCS-CN method, the proposed modification, and the Mockus method are compared.

SCS-CN-based modeling of sediment yield

Journal of Hydrology, 2006
Coupling the soil conservation service curve number (SCN-CN) method with the universal soil loss equation (USLE), a new model is proposed for the estimation of the rainstorm-generated sediment yield from a watershed. The coupling is based on three hypotheses: (1) the runoff coefficient is equal to the degree of saturation, (2) the potential maximum ...

Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) Methodology

open access: yes, 2003
The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) curve number (CN) method is one of the most popular methods for computing the runoff volume from a rainstorm. It is popular because it is simple, easy to understand and apply, and stable, and accounts for most of the ...

SCS-CN Method

2003
The Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method was developed in 1954 and is documented in Section 4 of the National Engineering Handbook (NEH-4) published by the Soil Conservation Service (now called the Natural Resources Conservation Service), U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1956.

Analytical Derivation of the SCS-CN Method

2003
Since the inception of the SCS-CN method, the issues such as the rational derivation of the method (equation (2.5)), the rationale of initial abstraction, the analytics of the S-CN mapping relation (equation (2.7)), and the CN-AMC relations have been of major concern.

Comparison of SCS-CN determination methodologies in a heterogeneous catchment

Journal of Mountain Science, 2015
The aim of this study was to assess the runoff amount from a catchment characterized by diverse land uses by using the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method based on Curve Number (CN) defined for dominant homogeneous elementary sub-regions.

Theory-Based SCS-CN Method and Its Applications

Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2010
This study, by incorporating the Philip infiltration solution, constructs from a theoretical perspective an alternative model to replace the Soil Conservation Service curve-number (SCS-CN) method and provides an in-depth analysis of its variants in order to understand their limitations and accuracy.

Evaluation of the SCS-CN-Based Model Incorporating Antecedent Moisture

Water Resources Management, 2004
Using a large set of rainfall-runoff data from 234 small to large watersheds from USA, this paper evaluates the modified version of the [Mishra, S. K. and Singh, V. P., 2002a, ‘SCS-CN-based hydrologic simulation package’, in V. P. Singh and D. K. Frevert (eds), Mathematical Models in Small Watershed Hydrology, Water Resources Publications, Chap. 13, pp.
