ARCHIVE - The Massachusetts Reservoir Simulation Tool

This is an outdated entry for the USGS Model Catalog. The current record for this model can be viewed with other models at https://data.usgs.gov/modelcatalog. This record will be removed on September 1, 2022. The Massachusetts Reservoir Simulation Tool is a screening-level model developed to examine the effects of reservoirs on the natural streamflow of streams in Massachusetts. The Massachusetts Reservoir Simulation Tool simulates the daily water balance equation of a water supply reservoir and estimates the magnitude, frequency and duration of spillage below the dam over the period of record. The application has a menu-driven user interface that allows the simulation of single- or multiple-reservoir systems.
