Abstract

This study presents a water quality Managementprogram for Urban River Networks (WAQUMURIN). Themodel analyzes a variety of water quality problems in urbanstream networks linked by ponds, lakes, and reservoirs, whichare subdivided into unit reach cells. A mass balance isperformed in each cell for the nonconservative contaminantsloaded from point and nonpoint sources on land. The model wasdesigned by GUI to provide a practical program formanagement purposes. To test the performance of the model, itwas applied to the Han River network in the city of Seoul, Korea,which has eight stream branches. The test was conducted forBOD load and compared with measured data.
