ABSTRACT:A simulation model that computes sediment yield due to sheet and rill erosion at the outlet of a large watershed requires daily precipitation and the soil, topographic, and vegetative characteristics of the watershed. An important problem, particularly in a large watershed, is the transport of sediment produced in the sub‐watersheds to the outlet of the whole watershed. This problem is approached mathematically by a sediment routing model that is used as a component of the total mode
