Workshop Publications

STAC and the Chesapeake Community Modeling Program (CCMP) held a joint workshop in June, 2011 to explore considerations for the next generation of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Model. The workshop’s goal was to provide input to the the Chesapeake Bay Modeling Team that could be used to inform selection of future hydrodynamic models for assessing water quality and management impacts. This report summarizes the workshop’s proceedings, presents recommendations for future modeling efforts, and provides background information needed to establish an RFP for the purpose of identifying and implementing a new hydrodynamic model or models for the Chesapeake Bay.
