WASP compatibility?

Fri, 10/17/2003 - 5:19pm — C2D68
I'm interested in the possibility of using hydrodynamic output from CE-QUAL-W2 as input to WASP for modeling fate and transport of contaminated sediments. Is this feasible?[addsig]

Not only is it possible, but it has been done previously. Winston Lung, a professor at the University of Virginia, has done this for a couple of applications. However, WASP cannot be used in certain applications where the water surface changes significantly over time, since it does not have a layer addition/subtraction algorithm. This may or may not be important for your application. There may be other issues as well since I have never done a linkage between the two.[addsig]
