Abstract: A detailed river basin simulation model has been developed by the California Department of Water Resources to simulate the combined operation of two major water project systems in California, namely the Central Valley ...

Abstract: Because of its importance as a drinking water supply for 20,000,000 Californians, the Sacramento‐San Joaquin delta and its tributaries have received much attention with respect to drinking water quality in general and ...

Abstract: Trihalomethanes (THMs), a group of drinking water disinfection by‐products, are suspected carcinogens and are currently regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. More stringent regulation of individual and ...

Abstract: An existing numerical hydrodynamics and water‐quality model was employed to simulate trihalomethane (THM) precursors and salinity transport in California's Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta. Using steady‐state assumptions and ...

Abstract: TWO empirical relationships are developed that describe bromide impacts on the distribution of trihalomethane (THM) compounds measured by California's Department of Water Resources (DWR) THM formation potential test. These ...

Abstract: The California Department of Water Resources has developed a water resources planning model (DWRSIM) to simulate the combined operation of the California State Water Project (SWP) and the Federal Central Valley Project ...

Abstract: A network flow programming‐based model, KCOM, was developed to simulate water allocation and distribution in the surface water system of Kern County, California. The model will help the California Department of Water ...

Abstract: An important issue that integrated hydrologic models (IHMs) for river basins can address is the management of water resources in heavily inhabited and cultivated basins. To address this issue, these models need to simulate ...

Abstract: The California State Water Project (SWP) along with the Central Valley Project (CVP), under various environmental regulations, manage California’s complex water storage and delivery system. An important part of the water ...

Abstract: The California State Department of Water Resources and the United States Bureau of Reclamation Mid-Pacific Region have developed a general-purpose reservoir–river basin simulation model for the planning and management of ...
