Techniques for Real-Time Operation of Flood Control Reservoirs in the Merrimack River Basin.
Abstract
Techniques being developed to provide decision criteria on a real-time basis for operating the five flood control reservoirs in the Merrimack River basin in central New England are described. The techniques include (a) application of alternative streamflow forecasting models, (b) application of computer program HEC-5C, Simulation of Flood Control and Conservation Systems, to develop decision-criteria for system operation on a real-time basis, and use of computer terminals to enable analysis of alternative forecast and/or decision criteria in both batch mode and interactive applications.
