Data, calibration, & uncertainty in advanced models
Just a heads-up—this section is still a work in progress! I’ll be revising and expanding it soon to make sure it’s as useful as possible. Curious about what’s already done or currently in the works? Check the changelog for updates.
As you might expect, the increased sophistication and power of advanced water quality models come with correspondingly greater demands for input data and more complex, often challenging, calibration procedures. This section will take a realistic look at these practical considerations.
We'll discuss the significantly expanded data requirements that arise when you're trying to define multiple interacting chemical and biological species, their initial concentrations at all system entry points, numerous kinetic rate parameters and equilibrium constants (many of which can be difficult to find in literature or measure directly), and potentially more detailed boundary conditions for each species.
