Use of the Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN (HSPF) Model for Watershed Studies

Abstract

The objectives of this document are to provide a general description of the Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN (HSPF) model, its capabilities and limitations, data requirements, traditional and innovative methods for HSPF hydrologic model calibration, and to present a case study HSPF model application whereby the capabilities of HSPF and its ancillary public domain, off-the-shelf software are demonstrated as a means to support system-wide modeling and assessment in a usable decision-support framework.
