Abstract

Dynamic modeling of runoff sediment yield for the Kashinagar watershed of Vamsadhara river catchment, Orissa was attempted. It was found that nonlinear form of model for daily data sequence is valid for the study area and linear relationship didn't give satisfactory results. The study indicated that assigning the varying weightage to antecedent events were found to be suitable for study area. It was found that the Kashinagar watershed fluvial system exhibits a strong memory on daily basis.
