Welcome to Model My Watershed - Runoff Simulation. See how changes in the amount of rainfall, the surfaces on which the rain falls and the texture of the soil change where the water goes. To begin, decide how much rain will fall by using the slide bar on the upper right. Then select the land-cover type where the rain will fall. Finally, pick a soil type. The coarsest soils (sandy soils) are on the left and the finest soils (clay loam) are on the right. As the simulation runs, follow where the water flows. Also, look at the column in the center that shows how much water goes in each direction.

Infiltration increase as rainfall increase until saturated.

Use the slide-bar to modify the amount of precipitation during a 24-hour storm event using a "Developed-Low" landcover type.  What happens to the amount of infiltration with increased rainfall?

# data[].attributes.body
Now switch between the different landcover types, keeping the rain amount the same (try 5cm). What patterns do you see with runoff and infiltration based on landcover type?

# data[].attributes.body
Now set the simulator to the landcover type and hydrologic soil group that best represent your school campus or neighborhood project location. What happens during a 24-hour storm event with 8cm of rain?

# data[].attributes.body
Think about everything that you learned. What could your neighborhood do to reduce flooding in the local watershed?

# data[].attributes.body
Would it be easier to change the land cover type or the natural hydrologic soil group?

Use the instructions to outline your school site and gather basic site information.

# data[].attributes.body
What is the predominant soil group for your school's property?

# data[].attributes.body
Use the instructions to see how current land cover conditions affect stormwater runoff and water quality in the local watershed.

# data[].attributes.body
How does infiltration change between "predominantly forested" and the "current scenario"?
*Note the "new scenario" and "current scenario" are identical at this point.

# data[].attributes.body
Use the instructions to model adding green roofs to your school property to reduce runoff and improve infiltration.

# data[].attributes.body
How did conversion to green roofs change the amount of runoff and infiltration?

First the infiltration increases more than the runoff but once the rain increase so does the runoff. Jevon Chen
