<br />OOH;i)~j <br /> <br />Colorado River Simulation <br />System-General <br /> <br />The CRSS breaks the basin down into various <br />reaches or subbasins. These reaches are then fur- <br />ther broken down into sequence points at which <br />inflows, demands on water (diversions), and <br />reservoirs are located. The configuration of the <br />Colorado River Basin as presently modeled con- <br />sists of 24 reaches. Each reach represents a <br />specific geographic area. Up to 10 inflows and <br />10 different demands can be identified within <br />each reach. Each demand or inflow is assigned <br /> <br />to a particular sequence point or location within <br />a reach. Currently, there may be only one reser- <br />voir per reach. Reservoirs consume one of the 10 <br />inflow sequence points; thus, in reaches where a <br />reservoir is located, 9 sequence points would be <br />available for inflows. The block diagram in <br />figure 2 illustrates the basin configuration as <br />presently modeled. Each block represents a <br />reach. Reach identification is a numerical <br />designation as well as an alphanumeric title. A. <br />typical reach schematic is illustrated by figure 3. <br />The basin configuration and reach description <br />data are input to the CRSM, thus providing <br />flexibility. <br /> <br />4 <br />
