SWAT Setup

The document provides step-by-step instructions for setting up an ArcSWAT project to delineate a watershed and its subbasins, define hydrologic response units (HRUs), and write input weather and parameter tables to run a SWAT simulation. It outlines the process for watershed delineation, HRU analysis, and writing input tables before running the SWAT model.
