Purpose

In the spring of 2005 the STAC recruited the authors as an independent panel of experts to review the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Model (CBWM) effort. The stated purpose of the review was to address the following broad questions: (1) Does the current phase of the model use the most appropriate protocols for simulation of watershed processes and management impacts, based on the current state of the art in the HSPF model development? (2) Looking forward to the future refinement of the model, where should the Bay Program look to increase the utility of the watershed model? The independent panel of experts was convened for a two day meeting in Annapolis, MD to review the Model and respond to the charge questions, summarized in the accompanying report.
