Consensus and Outstanding Issues. Issues other than flow and salt transport:. Particle Tracking Non-conservative water quality parameters (TOC, temperature). Core Questions. What are the intended applications of Delta models in the next 10 years?
E N D
Issues other than flow and salt transport: • Particle Tracking • Non-conservative water quality parameters (TOC, temperature)
Core Questions • What are the intended applications of Delta models in the next 10 years? • What is the current performance of Delta models in historical simulations and in foreseeable applications? • What are areas for improvement for Delta models?
Future Applications Real-time: • Operations • Emergency response Planning: • Sea level rise • Island flooding • Frank’s Tract / 3-Mile Slough • Shallow water habitat restoration • Storage and conveyance alternatives • South Delta and other barriers/gates • Changes in operations
What do we think about: • Modifications ready to be incorporated • Geometry revision protocol; datum revision • Delta agricultural uses • Open water areas • Salinity stratification • Goodness of fit measures • Other improvement needs • Resource needs
