[...] This report lays out the approach taken to update the data in the SSROM, summarizes the model and the data within the model, compares the updated SSROM outputs to those from previous modelling efforts, and finally summarizes future modelling opportunities that can be supported by the SSROM’s strengths. [...] The Working Group meetings were used to confirm data received from the GoA and the irrigation district representatives regarding the current operations of 1 Updates to the SSROM and the underlaying OASIS platform – Final Report the SSRB. [...] From the Blindman River to the Saskatchewan border, the WCO is 45% of the natural flow rate or 16 m3/s in the winter (November 1 to March 31) and 45% of the natural flow rate or 10 m3/s in the summer (April 1 to October 31).
