Development of Dissolved Oxygen Modeling Guidance, North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), D. Obenour (PI), E.Z. Berglund
Water quality modeling is a critical tool for evaluating municipal and industrial discharges to North Carolina’s surface waters. This project will provide guidance on modeling approaches to assess discharger impacts on dissolved oxygen conditions. Recommendations will include suggested model types, model configurations, data input requirements, and model performance standards.
