Sediment and Nutrient Modeling for TMDL Development and Implementation
2006
This paper presents a critical review of models simulating sediment and nutrients in
watersheds and receiving waters that have potential for use with TMDL development and
implementation. The water quality models discussed, especially those with sediment and/or nutrient
components include two loading models, five receiving water models, and nine watershed models
having both loading and receiving simulation capabilities. Other potential TMDL models are also
mentioned. Applications of some of the models, including in TMDL studies, are presented. The
models proved to be useful, however, still a learning process. Recommendations are offered for
advancing the sediment and nutrient, as well as their basic hydrologic, modeling technologies as
applied to TMDL development and implementation. An extended abstract of the paper is presented
here while the full-length paper has been accepted for publication in the Transactions of the ASABE.
