Soil erosion is widespread with spatio-temporal variability and is central to the determination of sediment yield, which is vital to proper management of watersheds. We propose a relation between the Curve Number (SCS 1956) and the Sediment Yield Index (SYI) using cubic, quadratic and quintic splines in this research. Using Mohgaon watershed (part of Narmada Basin) data, the relation between observed and computed SYI is found to have a coefficient of determination (R2) value of 0.87, 0.40 and 0.10 corresponding cubic, quadratic and quintic splines suggesting that such a relation can be used to determine SYI from the available CN value. The cubic spline was found to be the best method with respect to Absolute Prediction Error (APE), Integral Square Error (ISE), Coefficient of Efficiency (CE), Coefficient of Correlation (CC) and degree of agreement (d) (i.e., APE = 1.35, ISE = 3.09, CE = 62.08, CC = 79.60 and d = 0.99). The quintic spline (with an average value of APE = 19.59, ISE = 7.84, CE = − 165.73, CC = 19.30 and d = 0.26) and the quadratic spline (with an average value of APE = 20.99, ISE = 8.92, CE = − 199.90, CC = 8.95 and d = 0.15) ranked as the 2nd and the 3rd best methods, respectively. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.
