Description

This project entry serves as a home for Phase 6 Watershed Model documentation. To view documentation for previous phases of the Watershed Model, open Phase 1 and Phase 2 Watershed Model Documentation, Phase 4 Watershed Model Documentation or Phsae 5 Watershed Model Documentation. (There was not a Phase 3 Watershed Model.)

Phase 6 Watershed Model Documentation is available as a single downloadable document [78 MB] or as separate model sections (see belwo). The suggested citation is: Chesapeake Bay Program Office, 2020. Phase 6 Dynamic Watershed Model and CAST-17 Documentation. https://cast.chesapeakebay.net/Documentation/ModelDocumentation.
