• Calculate the stage-discharge curve for each structure.<br />

• Using the 2-foot contour lines and field information, calculate a stage-area-storage<br />

relationship for each structure in the model. Include storage below the permanent<br />

pools. The stage-area information will allow the model to account for evaporation<br />

during continuous simulation.<br />

• Combine the stage-discharge curve with the stage-area-storage curve to make one<br />

table for input into the model.<br />

3.3.5 Error Analysis<br />

When all the data is entered, run the model and check for errors in the run. Look for mass<br />

balance problems, model connectivity, correct data input, and proper model execution.<br />

3.3.6 Calibration<br />

The model should be calibrated against historic stream flow data if available.<br />
