<br />. <br /> <br />. . . DRAFT . . . <br /> <br />UCRBCOMI'I 12 FEB 83 <br /> <br />DEFICIENCY 2. The physical parameters used in the model (e.g., measurements <br />made along transects at PHABSIM sites. measurements made at capture sites of <br />fiShes) have error associated with their measurement. The magnitude of this <br />error is unknown and might be large. The reliability of the model relates <br />directly to the magnitude of this error effect. We must identify approaches to <br />testing/validating the physical habitat model. and to estimate the effect of <br />error on model output. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: Testing/validation of the model re9uires testing of the <br />fOllowing hypothesis: Amounts of conditions predicted by the simulation model <br />are comparable to those conditions observed (actually measured) over a range of <br />discharge conditions. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: Data/research needed to test the above hypothesis include the <br />following: <br /> <br />13 <br />
