As part of the Coastal Carolinas Focus Area Study of the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Census Program, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to develop models for the Cape Fear River Basin, North Carolina, to simulate future streamflow and irrigation demand based on land use, climate, and water demand projections. SWAT is a basin-scale, process-based watershed model with the capability of simulating water-management scenarios. Model basins were divided into approximately two-square mile subbasins and subsequently divided into smaller, discrete hydrologic response units based on land use, slope, and soil type. The calibration period for the historic model was 2000 to 2014. The best available...

Artificial drainage has major ecosystem impacts through the development of extensive ditch networks that reduce storage and induce large-scale vegetation changes. This has been a widespread practice of water table management for agriculture in Eastern North Carolina. However, these features are challenging to identify, and (because of their structure) have been determined by non-natural factors. A dataset of open ditches was processed by calculating terrain openness (also called positive openness): a value based on a line-of-sight approach to measure the surrounding eight zenith angles as viewed above the landscape surface. The result from calculating openness with high resolution digital elevation models (DEMs...
