Florida

Southern Florida

Left: the Southern Florida basin (WBD HUC4 0309) with its NHDPlus HR network, Lake Okeechobee and the basin's other larger lakes and reservoirs, Florida Bay, Biscayne Bay and the coastal waters as water, and our Kissimmee model (USGS 02270000) in orange. Right: that model drawn large, every one of its channels, with its water bodies in blue.

  • 1 published SWAT+ model
  • NHDPlus HR: 14,739 km of network flow paths, 2.3x NHDPlus V2.1's 6,401 km; canals are in both counts
  • 99 USGS gauges with a 90 % daily record, 2014-2024 (6 of 9 HUC8s covered)
  • 9 HUC8s both datasets carry, 46,082.6 km² (WBD HUC12 sum)

Each point is one basin (WBD HUC4): its network flow paths in NHDPlus Version 2.1 (across) and in NHDPlus HR (up), filled with canals and ditches in both counts, hollow without them. On the line, the two would be equal. In this figure, this basin's points are orange.

A model of your Florida watershed

We build a SWAT+ model for a USGS stream gauge in Florida, from national data. You download it as files you open in SWAT+ Editor and run, and you keep the files.
