Water quality modeling
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-030090
A system of mathematical expressions that describe both hydrologic and water quality processes. When used for the development of TMDLs, models can estimate the load of a specific pollutant to a waterbody and make predictions about how the load would change as corrective actions are implemented.
