Title | Simulated water-management alternatives using the modular modeling system for the Methow River Basin, Washington |
Creator | Konrad, Christopher P. |
Subject | Computer simulation; Geographical Information Systems; Hydrology; Hydraulics; Seepage; |
Coverage | Columbia River; Washington; |
Description | A precipitation-runoff model for the Methow River Basin was used to simulate six alternatives: (1) baseline of current flow, (2) line irrigation canals to limit seepage losses, (3) increase surface-water diversions through unlined canals for aquifer recharge, (4) convert from surface-water to groundwater resources to supply water for irrigation, and (5) reduce tree density in forested headwater catchments, and (6) natural flow. Daily streamflow from October 1, 1959, to September 30, 2001... |
