USRIEP

The USRIEP team has began work on SWAT modeling of Seversky Donets river basin that is located in North-Eastern part of Ukraine and it is a major surface water body in the region. Using DEM map, European land-use map and soil map for Seversky Donets river basin there were marked out the borders of sub basins and defined their characteristics (within Kharkiv, Lugansk and Donetsk regions). There were sorted out hydrologic similar units and calculated their characteristics (HRU Analysis - Land use, Soil and Slope Definition). Source data is collecting for calculations of hydrological discharge and water quality of Seversky Donets River and also for model calibration.

After adaptation of SWAT program to Seversky Donets river basin, USRIEP team is planning to adapt SWAT model to Ukrainian part of Black Sea basin in cooperation with other Ukrainian WP4 participants for such regions as Crimea, Odessa, Nikolaev, Herson, Zaporozhie, Donetsk, Dnepropetrovsk.

Within the work on task 4.1 USRIEP team has provided following SWAT data:

a) DEM map of 90 m x 90 m of Ukraine (Grid format, Fig.1);

b) Soil map of Ukraine on a scale of М 1: 1 500 000 (hard copy);

c) European soil map of Ukraine on a scale of 1:5 000 m (Grid format);

d) European land-use map of Ukraine on a scale of 1:5 000 m (Grid format);

e) Digital map with indications of the hydro chemical control stations (monitoring stations) on a scale of 1: 500 000 (Shape format);

f) Digital map with indications of the meteorological stations on a scale of 1: 500 000 (Shape format);

g) Water quality data including information on:

- Suspended sediments transport, concentration of suspended solids, nitrates and phosphates transport with the river flow (kg N, kg. P), dissolved oxygen transport (kg O2), data on concentration of chemicals such as: ammonium (NH4), nitrites (NO₂), mineral P (for the period from 1980 to 1992 – hard copy);

- Concentration of suspended solids; nitrates and phosphates transport with the river flow (kg N, kg. P), dissolved oxygen transport (kg O₂), data on concentration of chemicals such as: ammonium (NH4), nitrites (NO₂), mineral P (collected in outfall stations of the major rivers for the period from 1995 to 2008 e-form, Excel);

- River water quality data: concentration of suspended solids, nitrates and phosphates with the river flows (mg/liter N, Р), dissolved oxygen (mg/liter O2), data on concentration of chemicals such as ammonium (NH4), nitrites (NO2), mineral P for the period from 2006 to 2009 – e-form, Excel.

h) Temperature data (daily average– daytime and nighttime temperatures, atmospheric pressure) for the period from 1997 to 2010 (e-form);

i) Digital maps with indications of the location of major surface water intake points and wastes discharge from point-sources in Lugansk and Kharkov regions (Shape format);

j) Digital soil maps of Lugansk and Kharkov regions (Shape format).

The official meteorological and hydrological data centers in Ukraine are as shown in Table 4.

At present, the following SWAT data are available:

a) Meteorological data

− Meteorological stations. Names and geographical positions – digital maps.

− Data on daily minimal and maximal temperature (text files for the period from 1997 -2010).

− Data on daily rainfall. We can obtain them after turning to relevant HDC.

b) Hydrological data

− Water quantity (for the period from 1980-1992, Excel format);

− Water quality (for the period from 1980-1992, 2009-2010, Excel format);

− Hydrological stations. Names and geographical positions – digital maps (Shape format);

− Outfall stations of rivers such as Dunaj, Dnieper, Juznyj Bug – data on water quality (for the period from 1992-2008, Excel format).

c) GIS data

− DEM map of 90m х 90m for whole research area - Figure 11(Grid format).

− Digital map with indications of the hydro chemical control stations (monitoring stations) on a scale of 1: 500 000 - Shape format (Figure 12, 13, 14);

Some data are in preparation stage:

• Temperature data (average daily – daytime and nighttime temperatures, atmospheric pressure) for the period from 1997 to 2010), Excel format;

• Data on point sources is preparing including data on discharges from industries - water consumers (annual average waste water volume and contaminant quantity from industries in coastal zone) - Excel format;

• Land-use and soil map of Ukraine may be improved;

• Some ways to obtain data on agricultural management, water resources management, crop yield, and data on live-stock density are investigated;

• USRIEP team is studying the possibilities of clarifying the information on reservoirs and data on water flow and water quality at the inlet of researched water basin.

There are some difficulties in soil and land-use map improvement. There are also some obstacles in obtaining data on daily average river discharge. Now only data up to 1990 is available. At present only some average seasonal and monthly river discharge data are available for the period after 1990. One of shortcomings is also availability of only statistical regional data on the crop yield. Also precision of measurements of water quality parameters should be checked.
