Patapsco/Back River SWMM Model
Part I - Hydrology
Maryland Department of the Environment
Patapsco/Back River Watershed
Storm Water Management ModelSWMM
Selection Criteria Primarily Urban Runoff Model (wet weather flow) Existing studies available Existing parameterization information available Multiple Buildup/Washoff Functions Limited parameters Stakeholder involvement Credibility (EPA)
SWMM Blocks
Rainfall– Hourly
Runoff– Urban/Non-Urban– Infiltration (Horton)– Buildup/Wash off– USLE
Transport– Point Source– Baseflow
Postprocessing– Temporal Load– Event Mean
Concentration
Hydrology Calibration Methodology Parameterization
– Linked to topographic/physiographic information – Physically based
Flow Comparison– Daily Cumulative – Daily Frequency– Monthly– Seasonal– Annual
Analysis– Statistical Error– Correlation

Precipitation Stations (2) Advantages
– Quality of Data– Reduces averaging of
rainfall intensity Disadvantages
– Minimal spatial variability of rainfall
