Principles of surface water quality modeling and controlThis book teaches the fundamentals and principles which underlie the mathematical modeling techniques used to analyze the quality of surface waters. The text first provides an overview of the different bodies of water in which water quality problems need to be addressed before examining specific problems that occur across all bodies of water. |

2.2.1 Assumptions The basic idea in describing the discharge of material into a
river is to write a mass balance equation for various reaches of the river. We will
begin by examining the mass balance right at the point of discharge and the first

If the substance is conservative, compute and plot the profile of concentration (in
mg/l) with distance — both upstream and downstream of the discharge. Note that
the local oceanic boundary concentration is affected by the estuary discharge ...
