Limitations of simpler 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.
To truly appreciate the power and necessity of advanced water quality modeling, it's helpful to first understand where our simpler, foundational models reach their limits. This section will briefly revisit the capabilities and, more importantly, the inherent limitations of basic, single-species water quality models that typically rely on straightforward assumptions like first-order kinetics.
While these models are invaluable for many common tasks (like general chlorine decay or water age tracking), they often can't capture the full picture when things get more complicated.
