OPTRM is utilized to determine an optimal set of model parameters for the Wisconsin Hydrologic Transport Model, WHTM (NESC Abstract 808). An optimal set of parameters is defined as that set which gives in a mathematical sense the best simulation; i.e., which provides the best match on either a monthly or daily basis between observed outflows and simulated outflows. The term outflow applies here to either water or trace contaminant values.IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV (96%) and BAL (4%); OS/360; OPTRM utilizes an overlay structure requiring 290K bytes of storage. FORTRAN logical units 1 through 4, disk storage, are used as temporary files. The LAND and CHANL input are read from disk logical unit 5 with other input data read from unit 10. In addition to the print output on logical unit 15, units 6 and 13 are used for daily observed and simulated flow print and plot output.
