"Developing Generalizable Approach for Coupled CyanoHAB Predictive Models"
This project will establish an interdisciplinary collaboration between USACE and a partner to accomplish numbered objectives below.
Successful proposals will also (a) clearly identify question(s) the proposed project will seek to answer (i.e., project technical objectives); (b) clearly describe the tasks and data required to answer those question(s) (i.e., data quality objectives); and (c) describe envisioned project deliverables by task.
Proposals that demonstrate intent to maximize use of existing federal and state HAB programs, activities, and data are encouraged.
Successful proposals will identify quantitative and qualitative success criteria for each project task.
This project will:
1) Develop code (open source), input file templates, and all other materials required to make the coupled watershed/hydrodynamic modeling approach developed for Lake O generalizable for streamlined application at other fresh waterbodies for the purposes of simulating watershed processes and nutrient loadings into freshwaters and cyanobacteria Harmful Algal Bloom (cyanoHAB) dynamics in receiving waters.
2) Demonstrate the generalizable framework for application at water resource development project or waterbody that is currently the focus of a USACE-sponsored HAB research project and document findings in a case study report.
The field site should be identified in the pre-proposal submitted in response to this funding opportunity announcement.
3) Complete a draft case study report summarizing the generalized modeling approach in a step-by-step tutorial water managers (not modeling experts) can utilize to apply the modeling approach at their sites.
Includes all files, user guides, and instructions required for successful application – as well as lessons learned and frequently asked questions (FAQ) sections.
4) Complete a final case study report incorporating feedback from non-expert beta testers of the generalizable framework.
5) A fact sheet, quarterly progress reports, draft and final case study reports with associated electronic files, and a presentation at the yearly In-Progress Review are required.
