Engineer details watershed-model calibration and validation using Navarro River data
Summary
At a technical briefing, engineer Akash Rasher explained how the team's LSPC watershed models were calibrated and validated, citing calibration years 2018–2023 and validation years 2005–2017 for the Navarro River watershed and noting vetted metrics fell mostly in a 'very good' category.
Akash Rasher, an engineer in the supply and demand section, described how the LSPC interface lets users customize model-run parameters and recommended using the team’s prebuilt watershed models when there have been no major land-use changes to the watershed.
Rasher said a key advantage of the provided models is that “they've been calibrated and validated for current conditions.” He explained calibration tunes model parameters to match observed data while validation tests the tuned model against independent…
