Technical work group meeting. A technical workshop was arranged to better coordinate modeling activities and share information with others working in the watershed. We discussed how models under development could be appropriately used and evaluated the status of our understanding of processes in the estuary, river and watershed. As one of the outcomes of the Workshop we have put together a Model Comparison Chart. It can be best viewed in Netscape 2.0 and later. It is also advised to open up your browser window to the maximum possible size and might also require using a smaller font to see the whole table. In another table we have reviewed the Field and Lab Data Projects related to the Patuxent Watershed. |
