Abstract

This project:

  • Presents a review and summary of approximately 130 runoff, hydrodynamic, receiving water, and/or groundwater models available in either the public or private domain.
  • Provides guidance on selecting the appropriate model for screening-level versus detailed planning-level applications.
  • Describes the use of a Model Selection Tool, developed as part of this project. The Model Selection Tool guides the user to identify the appropriate model(s) available suitable for addressing the environmental problem being considered.
  • As of February 2020, the web tool is no longer available.

    Originally funded as WERF project 99-WSM-5.
