Abstract

In this study two water quality models, widely used in Korea, WASP5 and SWRRB were applied to Lake Paldang. The simulated results were compared with the measured data. The simulation results using WASP5 showed that this model could reasonably predict the concentrations of $NO_3$-N, Organic N, and Organic P. In order to investigate the effect of pollution by non-point source SWRRB was simulated and the concentrations of nutrients were predicted. The results from WASP5 and SWRRB are not directly comparable because their input data are different and output values are differently presented. Therefore, if these two simulation models were applied simultaneously, many valuable data and information could be obtained due to their own applicabilities and advantages.
