Water Quality Modeling & Assessment
Predictive modeling and monitoring solutions that turn complex water quality data into clear, actionable intelligence.
Discuss Your ProjectWhat We Do
Our water quality practice integrates field monitoring, laboratory data, federal datasets, and advanced modeling to characterize water quality conditions and predict how they respond to changes. Whether you need to develop a TMDL, design a treatment system, or understand contaminant fate and transport, we deliver the analytical depth to support your decisions.
Data Integration
We leverage data from USGS Water Services, the Water Quality Portal (WQP), EPA ECHO, and NOAA climate records — all accessible through our CEWaterHub platform. This integration allows us to rapidly assemble comprehensive water quality datasets, identify trends, and validate models against real-world observations.
Applications
Our water quality services include TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load) development, contaminant fate and transport modeling, source water protection assessments, stormwater quality analysis, nutrient loading and eutrophication studies, industrial discharge compliance evaluation, and watershed-scale water quality planning.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a TMDL?
A Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is the maximum amount of a pollutant a water body can receive while still meeting water quality standards. TMDLs are required under the Clean Water Act for impaired waterways and serve as the basis for pollution reduction strategies.
How do you integrate real-time data into models?
We connect to live data feeds from USGS stream gauges, weather stations, and water quality sensors. This real-time data is used to validate and update our models, enabling more accurate predictions and faster identification of water quality issues.
What federal datasets do you use?
We routinely integrate data from USGS Water Services (streamflow and water quality), NOAA Climate Data Online, EPA ECHO (compliance and enforcement), PRISM Climate Group (gridded climate data), and the Water Quality Portal (aggregated monitoring data from over 400 organizations).
