The Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method is frequently used for the estimation of direct surface runoff depth from the small watersheds. Coupling the SCS-CN method with the Soil Moisture Balance (SMB) method, new simple 2-parameters rainfall-runoff model and 3-parametrs rainfall-sediment yield models are derived for computation of runoff and sediment yield respectively. The proposed runoff (R2) and sediment yield (S2) models have been tested on a large set of rainfall-runoff and sediment yield data (98 storm events) obtained from twelve watersheds from different land use/land cover, soil and climatic conditions. The improved runoff (R2) and sediment yield (S2) models show superior results as compared to the existing Mishra et al. (S1) and original SCS-CN (R1) models. The results and analysis justify the use of the proposed models for field applications.
