چکیده

PURPOSE: This technical note presents the results of incorporating a fish bioenergetics module into CE-QUAL-ICM, a spatially explicit eutrophication model. In addition to fish consumption of algae, zooplankton, and detritus, fish biomass accumulation and recycling to the water column are explicitly accounted for. Schools of fish are tracked individually, allowing for spatial resolution of their effects on phytoplankton and nutrient loading. These developments allow for investtigations of the impact of planktivorous fish on water quality through consumption of algae and nutrient export via mass sequestering during growth. The formulation details of the new model system are outlined in this technical note.

Determining the best water quality model for the rivers in north of Iran (case study: Pasikhan River)

The aim of this paper is to study the popular models used for the simulation of major elements of a water quality system. The present study compares results of the CE-QUAL-W2 model with the WASP5 and MIKE11 models to assess the water quality of Pasikhan River. The contaminant loadings of Nitrate and Phosphate are utilized in the CE-QUAL-W2, WASP5 and MIKE11 simulations. This study is the first ...

Assessment of Ilam Reservoir Eutrophication Response in Controlling Water Inflow

In this research, a 2D laterally averaged model of hydrodynamics and water quality, CE-QUAL-W2, was applied to simulate water quality parameters in the Ilam reservoir. The water quality of Ilam reservoir was obtained between mesotrophic and eutrophic based on the measured data including chlorophyll a, total phosphorus and subsurface oxygen saturation. The CE-QUAL-W2 model was calibrated and ver...

ERDC/EL TR-09-9 Recreating the 1950’s Chesapeake Bay: Use of a Network Model to Guide the Application of a Eutrophication Model

This report is the last of a series that documents research relating the coupling of spatially and temporally detailed eutrophication models with ecosystem models that lack spatial and temporal resolution. Specifically, the Corps of Engineers Integrated Compartment Water Quality Model, CE-QUAL-ICM (ICM) is coupled to the Ecopath with Ecosim (EWE) fisheries model. This research examines the feas...
