The physical impacts of extreme weather disturbances such as storms and typhoons had been increasing in Santa Rosa Silang Watershed, where rapid land use conversion and high population pressure are major environmental issues. In this study, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was used to analyze the hydrology and sediment yield in the 102-km2 watershed.
