   Abstract:
   A framework has been developed in this study to address the impact of water quality fluctuations and thus mesh hydrologic, biologic and water quality aspects in determining instream flow strategies. These fluctuations are due to variable pollutant loads and hydrologic inputs. Continuous hydrologic and water quality simulation models are used to derive the frequency and duration of violations of established stream standards (e. g. , minimum dissolved oxygen concentration) according to State stream use classifications. Receiving water cause and effect relationships are viewed through the use of three-dimensional computer graphics, as well as cumulative streamflow and water quality frequency curves.
