[en] PEGASE (Planification Et Gestion de l’ASsainissement des Eaux) is an integrated model “basin/river” which makes possible to calculate in a deterministic way the water quality of rivers according to pollutant contributions and releases, for various stationary hydrological situations (see http://hdl.handle.net/2268/35224 for more information).
In the scope of the Water Framework Directive international coordination, the transnational surface water quality model PEGASE is already in use (since 2005) for the Southern part of the Meuse basin (France, Luxemburg, Wallonia and a small part of Flanders). It was thus of great interest to extend this surface water quality application to the Northern part of the Meuse basin, i.e. the Flemish and Dutch downstream parts of the basin, in order to cover the entire district.
In this framework, two contracts between the State of The Netherlands and the Research and Development Unit of Aquapôle have been concluded to extend the surface water quality model PEGASE to the Dutch part of the Meuse basin.
This report is related to the PEGASE simulation of the entire Dutch part of the Meuse basin.
