Description:The objective of this study is to establish a baseline methodology from which water-resources management, water-quality assessment and water related projects in the Mobile Bay-Mississippi Sound region can be achieved. This objective will be accomplished by implementing the specific tasks listed as follows: 1. To extend the mathematical modeling capabilities developed for the Mobile Bay system to the Mississippi Sound area shown in Figure 1. 2. To review the historical data base, to integrate the field data information provided in a parallel physical oceanographic study, and to use this information to establish preliminary trend behavior for water movement patterns and water levels under mid-range meteorologic and hydrologic conditions. 3. To apply the developed trend analyses in better defining field data survey locations that complement the math modeling effort. 4. To calibrate and verify the model with the physical oceanographic data, thus providing a sound starting point from which three-​dimensional models can be evaluated and/or material transport, water-quality and economic models can be applied to better describe the system.
