Stockton Flow and DWSC DO

• Stockton flow is always less than 50 Vernalis
• Stockton flow is reduced by about 5 Exports
• DO deficit (below saturation) was reduced from
  about 6 mg/l to about 1 mg/l as the flow
  increased from 0 cfs to 2,500 cfs
• DO deficit is reduced by 1 mg/l for each 500 cfs
  of flow the DO was gt5 mg/l at 1,500 cfs
• How will this change with reduced ammonia loads?
• Will a model provide better predictions?
