Abstract

ABSTRACT A seasonal phosphorus model was used to predict the effect of proposed watershed development on water quality in Lake Sammamish, Wash. The model was calibrated and verified using daily loadings from two separate annual data sets. Phosphorus yields were scaled from literature values using actual loadings. Results indicate that substantial runoff controls should be applied to maintain water quality at its present, near oligotrophic state and prevent its return to a prewastewater diversion mesotrophic–eutrophic state.
