In recent years, utilization of hydrological models has been increased to simulate watershed processes and for cost saving. Various hydrological models such as soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) have been developed to simulate runoff in the watersheds. In this study, the SWAT was used to simulate monthly runoff in the Bazoft watershed and the impact of springs discharge on the simulation accuracy was evaluated. Materials and Methods Bazoft is one of the watersheds in Karun basin, (31° 37′ to 32° 39′ N and 49° 34′ to 50° 32′ E) located in northern part of the Karun river basin in southwestern Iran. The area of the watershed is 2168 km2. The main river in the watershed is Ab Bazoft which is joined by Karun River at the outlet of the watershed. The elevation ranges from 880 m at the southern of the watershed to 4200 m on Zardkuh Mountain in the north eastern. Because the topography is very high in the watershed, the rainfall distribution is different, the average of rainfall in northern part of the watershed is 1400 mm, while the southern part is 500mm. The SWAT model was used because it is a continuous time, spatially and semi-distributed and basin-scale model, in which hydrological processes and water quality are coupled with crop growth and agricultural management practices. Input data include Digital Elevation Model (DEM), land use, soil type, meteorological and hydrological observed data were provided. After running the model, a sensitivity analysis was done using the one at time method and SUFI-2 program. For calibration and uncertainty analysis in this study, we used the PSO (particle swarm optimization) algorithm. SUFI-2 and PSO are linked to SWAT in environment of SWAT-CUP software. We used about two-third of the observed data for calibration and the remaining for validation. The simulation period was from 1992 to 2008. The study period was 1998–2008 for calibration and 1992–1997 for validation. The calibration and validation period results were analyzed at monthly time scale.). The objective function was the

flow and sediment transport in rivers. These models have been classified into four groups: empirical,
conceptual, physical, and computational. After that, the different types of models have been
reviewed and finally, instructions for choosing and also using these models have been provided.
