Long Term Water Temperature Modelling for Fish Habitat
Paper 9213rd International Conference on Current & Future State of Water
Resources and Environment Chennai, India
January 6, 2010
Syed M. A. MoinInternational Joint Commission
Study Purpose To examine long-term data series of
water temperature, from which fish habitat and season variability can be characterized
Also required: synthesis for discharge in tributary streams
and air temperatures

Solution Procedure Hydrodynamics engine based temperature
model St. Venant’s equations solved by linear finite
elements – FERNS Routines added to FERNS for the solution of
Temperature conservation equation
Key ElementsVelocity, depth, flow fieldsTemperature computations for:
Main stem, tributaries &Embayment
Four-day average air temperature as inflow water temperature
Daily air temperature
Model Features226 nodes, tree based network Cross-sections defined as x-y coords (up to 600
points)3-hour & 24-hr time stepPredictor-corrector hydraulic solutionRunge-Kutta explicit temperature solution at
60 & 150 sec. time steps
Analytical StepsData collection
Hydraulic & channel geometry Water levels at the outletWater temperatures – air and waterWater supplies into the Bay of Quinte
Data synthesisFive running average air temperature to surrogate
water temperaturesRegional and Net Basin Supplies analysis to map and
extend tributary flows
