Abstract
Purpose
The project assesses the impacts of climate change on sediment transport and nutrient cycling in the South Saskatchewan River from Lake Diefenbaker to Tobin Lake. The project is essentially water quality components of climate change production runs for the Saskatchewan River Basin. A number of models including MESH, SPARROW, MODSIM, CE-QUAL-W2 and WASP will be loosely coupled to produce daily water quality and sediment variables.
