A conceptual spatially distributed water balance model has been developed to simulate various components of the hydrologic cycle at the scale of a river basin. In this model, focus is given to incorporate the spatial variation of land use, soil type, rainfall, evapo-transpiration, physiographic characteristics, groundwater conditions, river network and hydraulic structures in a river basin. GIS is employed to link the spatial data with the simulation model and to project the model results in map form for easy visualization. The basin is divided into grid cells of uniform size (~1 km) and the model computes various components of hydrologic cycle such as actual crop evapo-transpiration, overland flow, groundwater recharge, and residual soil water content at weekly time step...
