Technical Guidance Manual for Performing Waste Load Allocations. Book 3: Estuaries. Part 4: Critical Review of Coastal Embayment and Estuarine Waste Load Allocation Modeling.

摘要

The document is the third of a series of manuals providing information and guidance for the preparation of waste load allocations. This part summarizes several historical case studies, with critical review by noted experts. The reader should refer to the preceding parts for information on model processes, available models, and guidance to monitoring and calibration. The technical guidance is comprehensive and state-of-the-art. Case studies of applications serve as the best teacher of the proper and improper use of this technical guidance. In this part are one freshwater embayment study and three estuarine studies where models were used for waste load allocation.
