  • A GIS-Based Flood Forecasting Model for the Duffins Creek Watershed, Ontario
    A GIS-Based Flood Forecasting Model for the Duffins Creek Watershed, Ontario by C. Darren Sutton A Research Paper Presented to Ryerson University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Spatial Analysis A joint program with the University of Toronto Toronto, Ontario, Canada © C. Darren Sutton 2003 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this Research Paper I authorize Ryerson University to lend this Research Paper to other institutions or individuals for the purposes of scholarly research. C. Darren Sutton ii Abstract Organizations such as the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) could benefit from a flood forecasting method that uses GIS tools and spatial data because they have already invested in GIS software. This research project utilized a 30- metre resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM), shapefiles of land cover and soil type, and a Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM+) satellite image to delineate hydrological response units. Snowpack depths were simulated using data from The Weather Network and modelling using the Guelph All-Weather Storm Event Runoff (GAWSER) equations. The Curve Number Method was used to predict peak discharge and time to peak discharge. Snowpack depth was overestimated in some cases, which is likely due to error in snowfall simulations and underestimation of the melt factor. A systematic error, which was caused by averaging of rainfall inputs was corrected for by reducing simulated peak discharge by a factor of 10. The model is most adept at simulating peak discharge for a 71.6 mm rainfall event. For smaller events, a multiplier was introduced to improve the model’s performance.

Funding for this project was supplied by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) from Durham Region and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. I EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Unlike many of the other watersheds in the Greater Toronto Area, the Duffins and Carruthers Creek watersheds remain largely undeveloped. However, as development pressures increase, the need to prepare a watershed plan becomes more critical. This process was initiated in 2000, with the initiation of the Duffins and Carruthers Creeks Watershed Plan process. Concurrent with this project was the development of a fisheries management plan (FMP), which will be used to guide future management of the aquatic ecosystem and provide direction for
