Abstract

Assessment of suspended sediments carried by streams and rivers is vital for planning and management of water resources structures and estimation of various hydrological parameters. More recently, soft computing techniques have been used in hydrological and environmental modeling. Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is employed here to estimate sediment load at Indus River basin, India. Three different scenarios are considered to predict sediment load using ANFIS. Scenario one includes precipitation, temperature, and humidity as model input, but in case of scenario two, another one constraint infiltration loss is added with scenario one. Inclusion of evapotranspiration loss with scenario two forms scenario three that gives prominent value of performance. Mean square error (MAE) and coefficient determination (R2) are applied here to evaluate efficiency of model. Six different membership functions Pi, Trap, Tri, Gauss, Gauss2, and Gbell are applied for model development. In case if Gbell functions, scenario three shows best value of efficacy with R2 value 0.9811 and 0.9622 for training and testing phases, which is superior as compared to other two scenarios.
