Technical Bulletin No. 0460: A Microcomputer Model for Evaluating Water Quality

This technical bulletin describes a simple water quality model suitable for use with a personal computer in a preliminary analysis. This model is well suited to environmental managers who need "quick" desktop assessments of the environmental impact of effluent discharges. Such assessments may be the precursor of a more detailed modeling study; or, simply serve to inform the user of likely instream cause-effect relationships.
