Klamath natural flow study, Upper Klamath Basin groundwater flow model
November 3, 2022
The purpose of the Upper Klamath Basin Groundwater Flow Model (UKBGFM) is to simulate groundwater conditions in the Upper Klamath Basin under historical and predevelopment conditions. The UKBGFM quantifies estimates of and changes in groundwater levels, storage, pumping, drainage flow to tile drains, evapotranspiration, and flow between the Upper Klamath Basin and neighboring basins. The quantifications of base flow to streams and seepage to and from lakes and reservoirs can be used as inputs to the RiverWare Mass Balance Model (Zagona and others, 2001), a companion model being developed as part of the Klamath Natural Flow Study (KNFS).
