| Abstract: | Using the Mike11 modeling system by the Danish Hydraulic Institute, a detailed model of the Rideau Valley Watershed was constructed.
It includes 532 km of rivers and lakes, 106 basins, 122 bridges and culverts, and 20 water control structures. The model was
calibrated using measured streamflow data for a time period of 5 years; additional 5 years of data was used for validation.
Various methods, both qualitative and quantitative, were used to evaluate the model performance. It was found that the model
can simulate the hydrological response with a reasonable to high degree of accuracy. This model is now being used for various
watershed management purposes, including flood forecasting, dam safety assessment, quantification of wetland functions, and
derivation of design flows. |
