Concerns have been raised regarding calibration of the models used for this project. What is meant by model “calibration”?

Calibration means adjusting the computer models to reproduce the measured flows and water levels as closely as possible. Data from several significant storm events is needed for calibration. There is only data for one storm event at this time (the September 2004 event, a storm that exceeded the 100-year storm). Stream gauges have been installed. The additional data collected will enable further calibration of the models so that appropriate adjustments to the Restoration Plan or development can be made as development occurs.
