Summary
A Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA) infrastructure that automates the manual process of
characterizing transport of pathogens and microorganisms, from the source of release to a point of
exposure, has been developed by loosely configuring a set of modules and process-based models.
Tutorials describe functionality of a QMRA software infrastructure, guide users through software use
and assessment options, and provide step-by-step instructions for implementing a mixed-use,
watershed-based QMRA. The tutorials are applications to portions of watersheds which provide short
descriptions and discussions that allow users to easily move through the QMRA assessment process
without having to implement all of the steps. These include:
•	Installation of software for watershed modeling in support of QMRA
•	Navigation of software that automates data collection and identifies an 8-digit HUC of interest
•	Importation of local data files to identify and modify contamination sources and input
parameters
•	Mathematical formulation of the Microbial Source Module (MSM) that determines microbial
loading rates to a watershed
•	Implementation of land-applied microbial loadings within a 12-Digit HUC
•	Pour-point analysis of land-applied microbial loadings and comparison of simulated and gaging
station results
•	NLDAS and NCDC meteorological data
•	Point source and land-applied microbial loadings within a 12-digit HUC
•	Publication of a microbial density time series as a TXT File
This tutorial combines several shorter tutorials and applies them to a complete watershed basin, from
source to receptor. Prior to implementation, it is recommended that users become familiar with earlier
boutique tutorials since many questions may be answered more concisely by them. This tutorial
demonstrates how to
•	Identify locations of flow gage stations in a watershed of interest.
•	Download flow and microbial observations from a USGS gaging station and text file, respectfully.
•	Export flow and microbial observations.
•	Prepare PEST input files for HSPF flow and microbial parameter calibrations.
•	Calibrate HSPF flow and microbial parameters with PEST.
•	View results of HSPF flow and microbial parameter calibration with PEST.
•	Compare observed, uncalibrated, and calibrated results.
The Manitowoc watershed is a 525 mi2 basin that is used to illustrate a complete source-to-receptor
assessment on a full-size watershed. The results published here are for illustrative purposes only and do
NOT represent a final or verified assessment of the Manitowoc watershed.

•	Compare uncalibrated, calibrated, and observed simulations at the watershed pour point with
BASINS
•	Visualize and overlay time series of flow and microbial densities at the watershed pour point
with BASINS
This tutorial implements an assessment on a complete river basin, based on a series of tutorials that had
previously been developed to aid users in implementing QMRA-related software to assess release,
migration, and fate of microbes in a mixed-use watershed setting, as described by Whelan et al. (2017a).
For example, Whelan et al. (2017b) presents a shorter version of the assessment presented here, since it
demonstrates a pour-point analysis of land-applied microbial loadings and a comparison of simulated
and gaging station results by simulating microbial fate and transport using HSPF; it then analyzes and
visualizes results at multiple locations in the watershed using BASINS.

Identify, Modify, and Import Local Source-term Data
This section identifies and modifies local data files, and imports local data files to the SDMPB. Local
source-term data are described in Whelan et al. (2017e) which also describes how to edit the files and
register them as map layers in the SDMPB. The user can modify certain source-term parameters and
influence the degree of resolution of the watershed through 12 local-data files that are installed when a
user begins a new project. They are located in the "...\LocalData" folder within the working folder.
Whelan et al. (2017d, 2017f, 2017g) provide additional examples identifying and modifying the local
source-term data example default files. Metadata associated with the parameters contained within each
file, including definitions and units, are summarized in Whelan et al. (2017e). Five of the 12 files denote
locations: point sources (PointSourceLL.csv), animal locations (AnimalLL.csv), septic systems
(SepticsLL.csv), boundary conditions (BoundaryPointsLL.csv), and locations for output results
(OutputPointsLL.csv).
21

-------
Modifications are made to the following local data files:
•	BoundaryPointsLL.csv - Identifies boundary condition locations. The boundary point location
(44.027308, -88.164316) was changed to (0.0, 0.0), outside of the watershed and will not
impact the assessment. Although no boundary condition is consumed for this example and
this modification is unnecessary, it illustrates how one can modify this CSV file.
•	FCProdRates.csv - Identifies 1) production or shedding rate of microbes from each domestic
animal, which equals the multiple of the (a) domestic animal shedding rate in mass of waste
(wet weight) per time and (b) microbial concentration based on mass of waste shed by the
domestic animal; and 2) identifies typical microbial production or shedding rate per wildlife
per unit area. The shedding rate of "BeefCow" was changed to the value for "DairyCow"
because half of dairy cows are grazed.
The following local data files will not be changed for this example:
•	AnimalLL.csv - Identifies domestic animal locations by Latitude and Longitude and domestic

Identify the Pour Point Gaging Station
There are several methods for identifying USGS gaging stations associated with watersheds. As
described by Whelan et al. (2017b), one uses BASINS software to download and identify the USGS
National Water Information System (NWIS) stations. A second approach, described below, goes directly
to the USGS NWIS web site and identifies the location.
38. The Manitowoc River Basin exists within the HUC-8 "04030101", as highlighted below. To compare
monitored and simulated flows and microbial densities, the watershed must be delineated through
the sampling/monitoring location, where the SDMPB allows the user to delineate watersheds at
intermediate locations like gaging stations.

watershed); use the Zoom icon	to clearly see the location highlighted with the red cross.
Zoom in because identifying the location is crucial to placing the pointer; if this location is
incorrectly identified, you may include more area than is needed for the assessment by
inadvertently getting too close to the HUC-12 boundary. On the map, move the cursor to the
location of the USGSgage station, and click (see red cross below).

a.	To ensure adequate sizes, define the "Minimum Catchment Size" and "Minimum Flowline
Lengths" as "15" and "15", respectively. The Minimum Catchment Size and Minimum
Flowline Length ensure that subwatersheds and stream segment length are not too small.
b.	Land areas that are less than 5% of the total have been factored into other Map Layers, as
noted by the "Ignore Landuse Areas Below Fraction" of "0.05".
c.	Check "HSPF."
d.	The "Degree Day" method is chosen to account for snow accumulation and melt.
e.	Select "Microbes" for the contaminant of concern.
f.	Output is "Hourly".
g.	Segmentation is "Individual", which allows model segments to be associated with each
subwatershed (not each meteorological station, which can have multiple subwatersheds
assigned to them).

Use the choices and values:
•	Choose "STATSGO" which is less detailed than SSURGO for soil options.
•	Choose "NLDAS" under Meteorologic which refers to MET data. NLDAS is the North American
Land Data Assimilation System and contains automatic quality control (QC), uses hourly gauge
station data and modeled precipitation, provides estimates at hourly intervals with a l/8th-
degree resolution, and provides precipitation time series at specified locations (Kim et al., 2014;
Whelan et al., 2017h). This is used in conjunction with NCDC NOAA meteorological data which
supplies information for regional data, such as air temperature. BASINS uses cached NCDC data
up to 2009. For direct access to hourly NCDC data, one would choose "NCDC", but the user must
obtain a Token ID. MET stations are assigned to the nearest subwatersheds (based on centroid).
•	Choose the "NHDPIus Elevation" for Elevation and "NHDPIus" for Delineation.
•	The name of the file should already be identified, but a different name or location can be selected
by choosing the name of the file (e.g., *.mwprj) and where it is saved. The .mwprj file is a
MapWindow (mw) Project (prj) file directly consumed by BASINS. The program will automatically
identify the working folder structure the user originally created. If a special location and name is
chosen, the user may identify a special folder using "Save Project As".
•	To allow data retrieval, check "Add Layers To Map During Project Creation".
•	Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the world standard for civil time, irrespective of the local
standard time [i.e., Greenwich Mean Time (GTM)]. Update the "Project Time Zone - UTC minus"
to the civil time zone of the study area (i.e., Manitowoc, Wl). This can be obtained from Figure 1
as "-6".

In this example, HSPF input files can be found in "C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-
PEST_1\HSPF". Three input files are required for HSPF modeling:
1.	04030101.uci: The User Control Input File, a flat file that contains all non-time series data,
including model parameters.
2.	04030101.wdm: The binary Watershed Data Management file that captures modeling flow
results such as time series of flow calculation
3.	met.wdm: The binary Watershed Data Management file that contains meteorological data
(precipitation, temperature, potential evapotranspiration, etc.) for HSPF modeling.

The microbial loading rates published in the HSPF *.uci file will need to be updated; these vary by
land-use type and subwatershed.

-------
MODIFY MICROBIAL LOADING RATES IN THE HSPF *.UCI FILE
HSPF considers up to nine land-use types. For this application only four land-use types will be populated
with microbial loading rates in the example. This section describes how the user can modify the
microbial loading rates to land-use types.
Identify Microbial Loading Rates in the HSPF *.uci File which need to be Set Equal to Zero
The Microbial Source Module (MSM) estimates microbial loading rates to four land-use types:
Urbanized/Built, Forest, Cropland, and Pasture. The SDMPB retrieves these estimates and automatically
pre-populates the HSPF input *.uci file with microbial loading rates in Cells/ac/d. [Note: The UCI file
writes the units as "Lbs/ac.d".] These rates are published for nine HSPF-designated land-use types:
•	Water/Wetlands
•	Urban
•	Barren or Mining
•	Forest
•	Upland Shrub Land
•	Agriculture - Cropla
•	Grass Land
•	Agriculture - Pastur
•	Traditional
where Urban, Forest, Agriculture - Cropla, and Agriculture - Pastur correspond to Urbanized/Built,
Forest, Cropland, and Pasture, respectively, in the MSM documentation (Whelan et al., 2017i). The
remaining land-use types are pre-populated with loading rates that represent holding places and at
levels significantly smaller than those associated with Urban, Forest, Cropland, and Pasture.
This section describes the process for modifying microbial loading rates in the HSPF *.uci file by using a
text editor or the HSPF user interface. In this example, microbial loading rates will be zeroed-out for the
following five land-use types while leaving the others (Urban, Forest, Cropland, and Pasture) unchanged:
•	Water/Wetlands
•	Barren or Mining
•	Upland Shrub Land
•	Grass Land
•	Traditional
Two different procedures for zeroing out microbial loading rates are discussed, of which only one should
be implemented:
•	Modify Microbial Loading Rates in the HSPF *.uci File by Using a Text Editor
•	Modify Microbial Loading Rates in the HSPF *.uci File by Using the HSPF User Interface
42

-------
Modify Microbial Loading Rates in the HSPF *.uci File by Using a Text Editor
64. Using a text editor (e.g., WordPad), open the *.uci file, in this case "04030101.uci", located in the
working folder: <...\HSPF\
e.g., "C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF").

Note that the subwatersheds are numerically numbered (e.g., 101, 102,etc.), where each
subwatershed ID is represented by the first character in number (e.g., "1" in "101" refers to
Subwatershed 1). The last two numbers represent the land-use type ID (e.g., 01 is Water/Wetlands,
02 is Urban, etc.). So, if Subwatershed 5 contains an Urban land-use type, then "502" will be in the
listing. In this example, eight of the nine land-use types are represented in the basin. The four land-
use types that will not be zeroed out, have been highlighted whose IDs are as follows:
x02 Urban
x04 Forest
x06 Agriculture - Cropla
X08 Agriculture-Pastur

SECTION 2
CALIBRATING FLOW-RELATED PARAMETERS
DOWNLOADING AND EXPORTING A TIME SERIES OF FLOW OBSERVATIONS
For flow-related parameter calibration, observed discharge data are required. This section describes
discovery, access, and retrieval of observed discharges associated with the USGS gaging station near the
pour point of the Manitowoc River basin. BASINS will be used initially to download a time series of flow
observations and export those data in a form consistent with input requirements of PEST.
91. A BASINS shortcut icon should appear on the computer's desktop.

If the icon cannot be found on the Desktop, locate the executable ("BASINS.exe") on the hard drive,
typically in ...\BASINS45\bin\, as illustrated below.

In this example, HSPF input flow parameters will be calibrated with daily flow observations. If the user
would like to use 15-minute or hourly flow observation data for the HSPF flow parameter calibration,
a similar procedure could be used for these data sets, using the observation data download described
in Appendix A.
76

-------
Export Flow Data as a Text File for Parameter Calibration
Parameter calibration will be performed using daily flow observations. This section describes the
procedure used in preparing a text (*.txt) input file of observed flow for use in the calibration of HSPF
flow-related parameters by PEST. Because calibration is iterative and over writes existing files,
files associated with the initial HSPF simulation must be maintained in a different folder location. The
time period associated with this calibration is from January 1, 2000 (2000/01/01) to December 31, 2012
(2012/12/31), respectively.
128. To export flow observation data, open the "Select Data" window again (from "analysis" and
"List" from the BASINS menu icons). In the "Constituent" column, choose "FLOW". In "Matching
Data", select "04085427" which is the gaging station that is nearest to the outlet of the Manitowoc
River Basin and will be used for HSPF flow parameter calibration. Ensure that "04085427" appears
in "Selected Data".

Data" section indicates the daily flow observations are available from 1972/07/26 to 2017/06/23. This
will affect to model parameter calibration and validation period; therefore, the start and end dates
need to be changed to 2000/01/01 and 2012/12/31, respectively.

PREPARING PEST INPUT FILES FOR HSPF FLOW PARAMATER CALIBRATION
Parameter calibration will be performed using daily flow observations. This section describes the
procedure to prepare PEST input files for calibration of HSPF flow-related parameters. Because
calibration is iterative and writes over existing files, files associated with the initial HSPF simulation that
are over-written must be saved in a different location.
138. Create a new folder ("...\Flow\Daily\") in
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\".

The executable "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" prepares files necessary for HSPF flow parameter calibration with
PEST.
A.	Three PEST input files
a.	PEST control file (.pst): PEST parameters, model parameters metadata (names, initial
values, ranges, etc.), parameter groups, observed flow data, and path of model
executables.
b.	PEST template file (.tpl): Structure of the model input file and location of where the
calibrating parameter values are to be placed.
c.	PEST instruction file (.ins): How PEST will read the model output file.
B.	Two batch files
a.	"runHSPF.bat": Executes HSPF (i.e., WinHSPFIt.exe)
b.	"runPEST.bat": Executes HSPF parameter calibration with PEST
C.	Flow observation time series file: Flow observation date with missing values as "-9999". This file is
not used for parameter calibration.
"lnput_flow.in", the default input file used with the "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe", contains details for preparing
PEST input files: "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" and "lnput_flow.in" which can be found in Appendix B.
"lnput_flow.in" defines
A.	Folder paths of HSPF (i.e., WinHSPFIt.exe), PEST (i.e., pest.exe) and a working folder where HSPF
input files, generated by SDMPB, are located. In this example, the folder path for the daily
calibration is
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\Flow\Daily"
B.	Calibration parameter names and ranges for each land use group.
C.	Land use groups that have different parameter values.
D.	Number of years for model warm-up.
As the default, "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" and "lnput_flow.in" are located in
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\bin\Data\HSPF-PEST", created by SDMPB, and copied to
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST". These files can be located in any
folder, but both must be in the same folder. In this example for parameter calibration with daily flow
observations, "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" and "lnput_flow.in", respectively, must be located in working folder
(e.g., "C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\Flow\Daily").
The working folder paths in "lnput_flow.in" must be updated to reflect the locations of the 1) batch
version of HSPF (i.e., WlnHSPFLt.exe), 2) working folder, and 3) inverse model PEST. This information is
captured in the first three lines of the "lnput_flow.in" file, as discussed in Appendix B. The inverse model,
PEST, estimates specific HSPF input parameters to minimize differences between observed and simulated
results (flows and microbial densities). When automating the calibration process, a non-Windows-based
version of HSPF (i.e., WinHSPFLt.exe) is required, one which allows batch runs with no user interaction.
Because different organizations constructed software builds for BASINS and SDMPB installation, the
current software installation process installs WinHSPFLt.exe in two different locations:
•	C:\BASINS45\models\HSPF\bin\ and
•	<...\SDMPB\bin\>
as both include WinHSPFLt.exe; hence, there is the possibility that two different versions of the software
might exist. To ensure consistency, the version ofWinHSPFLt.exe contained in the SDMPB build (i.e.,
<...\SDMPB\bin\) will be the one used in the calibration process.

The following lines in "lnput_flow.in" may need to be updated. Ensure that these lines are correct.
•	Line 1 identifies the path of the folder location of WinHSPFLt.exe.
•	Line 2 identifies the path of the working folder here input UCI file, WDM files, and a flow
observation file are located, and output files of "HSPF_PE5T_flow.exe" will be generated.
•	Line 3 identifies the path of the folder location of PEST.exe.
•	Line 4 identifies the number of years for model warm-up, from start of the simulation as it
appeared in the input UCI file
Refer to Appendix B for additional information on modifying the "!nput_flow.in" file. Ensure that
the name of the folder locations end with a backslash (\) for the first three lines.
The time period associated with this calibration is from January 1, 2000 (2000/01/01) to December
31, 2012 (2012/12/31), respectively. For this example, parameter calibration with daily observations
will use the first seven years (i.e., 2000-2006) for model warm up and the final five years for
calibration (i.e., 2007-2012). As such, the fourth line will need to contain a "7".
86

-------
141. For this example, change the
•	first three lines to the appropriate folder locations.
•	fourth line from a "1" to a "7".
•	Save and exit.

Prepare HSPF for the Flow Calibration Period
HSPF input files were prepared with MET data from 2000 to 2012 which needs to be divided into two
sub-periods: one for parameter calibration and one for validation. In this example, parameter calibration
with daily flow observations will be performed for 2007 to 2012, with first seven years as model warm-
up.

157. Daily results are presented in the figure below In the example, daily flow parameter calibration
results are summarized in "OPTIMISATION RESULTS" which contains calibrated parameter values
(under "Estimated value") and their confidence limits, followed by iterative comparisons of flow
calculations and observations (see "Observations	>"). For additional insight on relationships
between calibration parameters and environmental factors, Appendix C provides heuristic
relationships between land use types and various calibration parameters.

Note: confidence limits provide only an indication of parameter uncertainty.
They rely on a linearity assumption which may not extend as far in
parameter space as the confidence limits themselves - see pest manual.

158. Statistics between calculations and observations are listed in "Objective Function	>" and
"Correlation coefficient —>", as illustrated below. The sum of squared weighted residuals is a
measure of the discrepancy between the data and an estimation model The correlation coefficient
(V) is a statistical measure of the degree in the change of one parameter because of change in
another. When done, close the file.

Note: the above variance was obtained by dividing the objective
function by the number of system degrees of freedom (ie. number of
observations with non-zero weight plus number of prior information
articles with non-zero weight minus the number of adjustable parameters.)
If the degrees of freedom is negative the divisor becomes
the number of observations with non-zero weight plus the number of
prior information items with non-zero weight.

COMPARING HSPF FLOW SIMULATION RESULTS BY PLOTTING MULTIPLE TIME SERIES
HSPF performs hourly simulations and can publish the results as hourly, daily, monthly, etc. The
observed flows obtained from the USGS gage station are daily values, so the calibrated results are
associated with the observed daily values.
Identify Data Sources Containing Daily Flow
To plot daily flow data time series of discharges, the file containing the time series data must be
identified within BASINS plotting tools. Once identified, calibrated and observed flow time series can
plotted simultaneously.
184. Within BASINS, select "Analysis>Graph".

Note that in plot label, the first two labels have the same name, but they can be differentiated, as the
abeling order follows that of the Selected Data section:

In this case, the first label refers to uncalibrated flows, the second label refers to the calibrated flows,
and the third label refers to observed flows. When multiple results are plotted, the first label is
usually associated with the left Y-axis. When editing the plot, the software will designate which curve
is associated with which axis (e.g., left Y-axis versus right Y-axis).

SECTION 4
CALIBRATING MICROBIAL-RELATED PARAMETERS
PREPARING MICROBIAL OBSERVATION DATA
HSPF microbial parameter calibration requires microbial observation data at the outlet of the watershed
(i.e., "*_microbe_obs_009.txt"). The data needs to be prepared in the following format.
yyyymmdd hh:mm conc(l)
yyyymmdd hh:mm cor\c(2)
yyyymmdd hh:mm conc(n)
yyyymmdd captures the year (yyyy), month {mm), and day [dd); and hh:mm captures the hour [hh) and
minute (mm), conc(i) is /th observation of microbial density or concentration (Counts/L or Cells/L), and n
is the number of observations.
206. Locate (or create) a txt file, titled "04030101_microbe_obs_009.txt". In this example, the
"04030101_microbe_obs_009.txt" file can be located in the folder:

The HSPF UCI file ("04030101_flow.uci"), written by PEST, contains parameters calibrated by PEST
which represent the final HSPF simulation associated with flow calibration. The calibrated flow time
series is captured in the modified "04030101.wdm" file. In this example, daily calibrated flow results
in the "04030101_flow.uci" and "04030101.wdm" files are located in
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\Flow\Daily".

Because microbial calibration will use microbial observations in 2011 and 2012, and closely associated
with the flow simulation results, the calibration will use flow parameters calibrated with daily flow
from 2007 to 2012.

The executable "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" prepares necessary files for the HSPF microbial parameter
calibration with PEST.
•	Four PEST files
o PEST control file (.pst): PEST parameters, model parameters metadata (names, initial
values, ranges, etc.), parameter groups, observed flow data, and path of model
executables.
o PAR2PAR TPL file (_P2P.tpl): Structure model input file (i.e., "*_microbe.uci") and
locations of where calibrating parameter values are to be placed,
o PEST template file (.tpl): Structure of the PAR2PAR input file and locations of where
calibrating parameter values are to be placed,
o PEST instruction file (.ins): Describes how PEST will read the model output file for
calculating error statistics.
•	Two batch files
o "runHSPF.bat": Executes HSPF (i.e., WinHSPFIt.exe) and PAR2PAR (i.e., par2par.exe")
o "runPEST.bat": Executes HSPF parameter calibration with PEST
"lnput_microbe.in", the default input file used with "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe", contains details for
preparing PEST input files which can be found in Appendix D. "lnput_microbe.in" defines
•	Folder paths of HSPF (i.e., WinHSPFIt.exe), PEST (i.e., pest.exe) and a working folder where
HSPF input files are located (i.e., "...\ HSPF-PEST\Microbe\". In this example, the folder path
for microbial calibrations is
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\Microbe".
•	Calibration parameter names and their ranges for each land use group
•	Land use groups that differentiate parameter values
•	Number of years for model warm-up
As default, "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" and "lnput_microbe.in" are located in
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\bin\Data\HSPF-PEST", created by SDMPB, and copied to
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST". These files can be located in
any folder, but both must be in the same folder. In this example for parameter microbial calibrations,
"HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" and "lnput_microbe.in" must be located in
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\Microbe".
125

-------
211. In this example, copy "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" arid "lnput_microbe.in" from
"C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\biri\Data\HSPF-PEST" to

Ensure that the folder path for the HSPF and the PEST codes listed on the first and the third lines are
also correct and name of the folder location ends with a backslash (\).
NOTE: Local well data associated with the Manitowoc basin indicate an absence of microbe (i.e.,
enterococci) in underground water (i.e., interflow and groundwater). Thus, microbial concentrations
in interflow and groundwater (i.e., "IOQC" and "AOQC") do not need to be calibrated, so these data
can be removed from the file.
214. In "lnput_microbe.in", remove the lines associated with "IOQC" and "AOQC".

CALIBRATING HSPF MICROBIAL PARAMETERS WITH PEST
Parameter calibration usually takes several hours, depending on the setting in PEST, number of
parameters, and model nonlinearity. Users should disable the machine's screen saver during execution,
if possible.
220. Within the "C:\Users\gwhelan\iemTechnologies\SDMPB\HSPF-PEST_l\HSPF-PEST\Microbe"
folder, execute "runPEST.bat". During microbial parameter calibration, a command window appears
and disappears multiple times, as shown below, which indicates PEST and HSPF are running
successfully. Once HSPF microbial parameter calibration with PEST is finished, the command window in
the figure above disappears.

223. Statistics between calculations and observations are listed in "Objective Function	>" and
"Correlation coefficient —>", as illustrated in the figure below. The sum of squared weighted
residuals is a measure of discrepancy between the data and an estimation model. The correlation
coefficient ("r") is a statistical measure of degree in change of one parameter because of change in
another. When done, close the file.

Note: the above variance was obtained by dividing the objective
function by the number of system degrees of freedom (ie. number of
observations with non-zero weight plus number of prior information
articles with non-zero weight minus the number of adjustable parameters.)
If the degrees of freedom is negative the divisor becomes
the number of observations with non-zero weight plus the number of
prior information items with non-zero weight.

Calibration values in the PEST output file (04030101_microbe.rec) are not final because results differ
slightly due to the monthly variability of some parameters, although the statistics (e.g., correlation
coefficient) repotted are valid and reflect calibration. This section illustrates how to view calibration
results using a text editor or from within WinHSPF.
View Microbial Results Using a Text Editor
Appendix D documents the HSPF microbial parameters that were varied in the calibration process,
including ACQOP (MON-ACCUM in case of monthly variable), WSQOP, FSTDEC, THFST, and MONTH-
DATA. This section reviews their location and values in the UCI file "04030101_microbe.uci". For details
about the HSPF UCI file, see Bicknell et al, (2005) or "C:\BASINS45\docs\HSPF.chm".

REGISTERING CALIBRATED SIMULATION RESULTS AND OBSERVATIONS WITH BASINS
HSPF microbial calibrated and uncalibrated simulation results with observations will be imported into
BASINS for viewing and comparison. This section describes how to register simulation and observation
time series results of microbial concentrations with BASINS, which will be used as the viewer.
246. Execute BASINS with the BASINS icon. When "Welcome to BASINS 4.5" appears, click
"Manitowoc" to open the BASINS project generated by SDMPB.

Since the "Data Source" column should have been added when uncalibrated and calibrated flow
results with observations were plotted, it should not be necessary to add it again. [As a reminder,
"Add" was chosen under "Attributes", then "Data Source" for the new column.]

274. The following "Timeseries Graph" is generated, in which two Y-axes appear. This is caused by
the large differences in magnitude between time series curves. Values on the axes differ by
approximately one-order of magnitude.
In the above graph, note that two Y-axis are appeared. This is caused by large difference between
time series. You can see the values on the both axis have about an order of magnitude difference. To
clearly indicate each time series, we can change the color of the curves, and the y-axis can be changed
from linear to logarithmic.

APPENDIX B
Flow Calibration: Details of "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" and "lnput_flow.in"
This section provides details of the FORTRAN code for preparing HSPF parameter calibration with PEST
(i.e., "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe"). "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" is designed to
•	consume the HSPF input UCI file (*.uci) prepared by SDMPB
•	consume a flow observation file (*_obs.txt)
•	consume a user input file (lnput_flow.in)
•	prepare PEST input files (*.pst, *. tpl, *.ins)
•	prepare batch files for running HSPF and PEST ("runHSPF.bat" and "runPEST.bat", respectively)
•	prepare the file containing observed flows with missing values ("*_obs.out").
Input files include:
•	Input UCI file (".uci"): represents the main HSPF input file prepared by SDMPB
which includes all input data (e.g., simulation time, time series input file names, output file
names, land use segmentation, print options, parameters, etc.), except time series input. Users
do not need to directly modify the UCI file, since it can be modified through the HSPF user
interface, although experienced users can modify this ASCII file directly. Only one UCI file exists
per working folder, as specified in the "lnput_flow.in" file.
•	Flow observation ("_obs.txt"): includes observed flow time series with the
desired time step for parameter calibration which is downloaded and exported through BASINS.
Users do not need to modify this file since it typically reflects USGS gaging station data. The time
series in this file can include missing data.
•	User input file ("lnput_flow.in"): includes information for generating PEST input files.
Figure B.l presents the generic format of the "lnput_flow.in" file. Descriptions of input data are:

• HSPFPATH: path of WinHSPFIt.exe. When HSPF is installed with BASINS, WinHSPF 3.0 (with user
interface) and its light version, WinHSPFIt.exe (without user interface), are installed together.
176

-------
PEST executes WinHSPFIt.exe as executed on the Command Window. WinHSPFIt.exe is typically
located in "\mode\s\HSPF\b\n\" or "\b\n\".
•	WORKPATH: path of working folder where input UCI file, WDM files, and a flow observation file
are located, and output files of "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" will be generated.
•	PESTPATH: path of pest.exe.
•	ny_warm: number of years for model warm-up, from start of the simulation as it appeared in
the input UCI file
•	nLUgroup: number of land use groups. "1" means PEST calibrates the same parameter value for
all land use groups. nLU and LU must be repeated nLUgroup times.
•	nLU: number of land use types included in each land use group. For example, a land use group
may include two types such as Agricultural and Forest. There are nine land use types:
Water/Wetlands, Urban, Barren or Mining, Forest, Upland Shrub Land, Agriculture-Cropla, Grass
Land, Agriculture-Pastur, and Transitional. "Cropla" and "Pastur" refer to Cropland and Pasture.
•	LU: Land use types included in each land use group. LU must be repeated as many as nLU times.
LU must be same as it appears in the input UCI file. If there are land use types that do not
appear in the UCI file, the program skips them.
•	para: name of each parameter, para should be the same as it appears in the input UCI file.
•	lower and upper: minimum and maximum values of each parameter in the calibration process.
This line must be repeated nLUgroup times for each parameter. Possible and recommended
parameter ranges can be found in EPA (2000).
Figure B.2 illustrates an example user input file "lnput_flow.in". It differentiates parameter values into
four land use groups, which means PEST calibrates four different values for each parameter. Output files
include:
•	PST file ("_f\ow.pst"): PEST control file that includes PEST parameters,
information of model parameters, parameter groups, observed flow, model executables, etc.
Users can modify or add PEST parameters, as necessary. Explanation of PEST parameters can be
found in the PEST manual (Doherty, 2005) at http://www.pesthomepage.org/Downloads.php.
•	TPL file ("_flow.tpl"): PEST template file that includes structure of the model
input file (i.e., HSPF UCI file) and location of calibrating parameter values.
•	INS file ("_flow.ins"): PEST instruction file that explains how PEST reads the
model output file for calculating error statistics.
•	"runHSPF.bat": Batch file that executes HSPF.
•	"runPEST.bat": Batch file that executes the HSPF parameter calibration with PEST.
•	Flow observation with missing data ("_obs.out"): A file that includes flow
observations with missing data denoted as "-9999"; this file is not used by PEST.
The following assumptions apply when constructing the PEST input file:
•	Simulation start and end times, including model warm-up, are assumed to be the same, as they
appear in the HSPF input UCI file prepared by SDMPB.
•	PEST calibrates HSPF flow parameters during calibration which is when observation and
simulation periods overlap. If no overlap occurs, "HSPF_PEST_flow.exe" returns an error, noting
that an inconsistency exists between the two periods.

-------
•	PEST minimizes the squared error between observations and calculations at the outlet of the
watershed, as defined in the input UCI file prepared by SDMPB. The outlet of the watershed
appears on the last line of "OPN SEQUENCE" section in the input UCI file.
•	It changes "Flags" in "PRINT-INFO" and "BINARY-INFO" sections, throughout the input UCI file,
to "6" which means "never print" in default output and binary files, thereby saving output size.
•	It removes "EXT TARGETS" section in the input UCI file, instead adding a "PLTGEN" section after
the "FTABLES" section to print selected flow (i.e., calculated flow discharge at the calibration
point within the watershed) in a separate output file. Writing to "PLTGEN" includes adding a
name of the separated output file (i.e., *_flow.p93), a "PLTGEN" line in "OPN SEQUENCE"
section, and a "NETWORK" section after the "EXT SOURCES" section.
•	It indicates the time step of the observed flow in "*_obs.txt", then writes the "PLTGEN" section
accordingly. Thus, if a user prepares 15-minute, 30-minute, or hourly flow observations in
"*_obs.txt", the model writes hourly flow values to calibrate parameters with hourly flow. Only
15-minute, 30-minute, hourly, or daily time steps can be indicated.
•	It assumes all parameters do not vary by month, even if some vary in the input UCI file prepared
by SDMPB.
•	It turns on "Snow Accumulation and Melt", if it is turned off in the input UCI file.
•	It turns off soil temperature and water quality modeling for simulation efficiency.
•	If the parameter AGWETP is calibrated, it assumes AGWETP varies only for the land use type
"Wetlands/Water", and is fixed for other land use types as "0" (EPA, 2000).

APPENDIX C
Flow Calibration: Heuristic Relationships between Land Use Types
and Various Calibration Parameters
Parameter ranges and their calibrated values may vary by land use types. Although there are no
recommended ranges that vary by land use types, heuristic relationships between land use types for
various parameters are defined as follows:
•	INFILT - highest for water/wetlands, next highest for forest
•	LZSN - highest for forest, lowest for water/wetlands
•	CEPSC - may change over the course of the growing season for agricultural land uses and
deciduous forest (monthly)
•	UZSN - may change over the course of the growing season for agricultural land uses (monthly);
highest for water/wetlands, next highest for forest
•	LZETP - higher for forest and wetlands, next highest for row crops, then grassland
The above relationships can be used to establish parameter ranges for calibration or to evaluate
calibration results.

APPENDIX D
Microbial Calibration: Details of "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" and "lnput_microbe.in"
This section provides details of the FORTRAN code for preparing HSPF calibration of microbial
parameters using PEST (i.e., "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe"). "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" is designed to
•	consume the HSPF input UCI file (*_flow.uci) which is prepared during the HSPF flow parameter
calibration with PEST
•	consume a microbial observation file (*_microbe_obs.txt)
•	consume a user microbial input file (lnput_microbe.in)
•	prepare PEST input files (*_microbe.pst, *_microbe.tpl, *_microbe.ins)
•	prepare an input file (*_microbe _P2P.tpl) for PAR2PAR, which is a PEST utility that manipulates
parameters
•	prepare batch files for running HSPF and PEST (runHSPF.bat and runPEST.bat, respectively).
•	prepare a file containing observed microbial densities (concentrations) with missing values
"*_microbe_obs.txt".
Input files include:
•	Input UCI file ("_flow.uci"): the main HSPF input file resulting from HSPF flow
parameter calibration process using PEST, which includes calibrated HSPF flow parameters, all
input data (e.g., simulation time, time series input file names, output file names, land use
segmentation, print options, parameters, etc.), except time series input. Users do not need to
modify the UCI file directly, since it can be modified through the HSPF user interface, although
experienced users can modify this ASCII file directly. Only one UCI file exists per working folder,
as specified in the "lnput_microbe.in" file.
•	Microbial density observations ("_microbe_obs.txt"): includes observed
microbial densities varying in time, where intermittent or fixed time steps are allowed; this file
can include missing data.
•	User-defined microbial input file ("lnput_microbe.in"): includes information for generating PEST
and PAR2PAR input files.
Figure D.l presents the generic format of the "lnput_microbe.in" file. Descriptions of input data are:
•	HSPFPATH: path of WinHSPFIt.exe. When HSPF is installed with BASINS, WinHSPF 3.0 (with user
interface) and its light version, WinHSPFIt.exe (without user interface), are installed together.
PEST executes WinHSPFIt.exe, as it is executed in the Command Window. WinHSPFIt.exe is
typically located in "\mode\s\HSPF\b\n\" or "\b\n\".
•	WORKPATH: path of working folder where the input UCI file, WDM files, and a microbial
observation file are located, and where output files of "HSPF_PEST_microbe.exe" will be
generated.
•	PESTPATH: path of pest.exe.
•	ny_warm: number of years for model warm-up from start of the simulation, as appeared in the
input UCI file
•	nLUgroup: number of land use groups. "1" means PEST calibrates the same parameter value for
all land use groups. nLU and LU have to be repeated nLUgroup times.
•	nLU: number of land use types included in each land use group. For example, a land use group
may include two land use types, such as Agricultural and Forest. There are up to nine land use

-------
types: Water/Wetlands, Urban, Barren or Mining, Forest, Upland Shrub Land, Agriculture-
Cropla, Grass Land, Agriculture-Pastur, and Transitional. "Cropla" and "Pastur" refer to Cropland
and Pasture.
•	LU: Land use types included in each land use group. LU has to be repeated as many as nLU
times. LU must be the same as it appears in the input UCI file. If there are land use types that do
not appear in the UCI file, the program skips them.
•	para: name of each parameter, para should be the same as it appears in the input UCI file.
Parameters that start with "MON-" or "MONTH-" indicate parameters that vary monthly.
o (lower) and (upper): minimum and maximum values for those parameters that vary
monthly, and are not used if the parameters do not vary monthly. When "-9999" is
used, no minimum or maximum value is assigned to the parameter.
•	lower and upper:
o Parameters that vary monthly represent minimum and maximum values of proportional
change, multiplying the initial values of these parameters by this factor. This line must
be repeated nLUgroup times for each parameter, except 'MONTH-DATA', 'FSTDEC' and
'THFST' since those are not grouped by land use.
o Parameters that do not vary monthly represent minimum and maximum values.

Figure D.l. Constructions of user input file ("lnput_microbe.in")
An example user input file "lnput_microbe.in" is illustrated in Figure D.2. It separates parameter values
into two land use groups which means PEST calibrates two different values for each parameter.
Parameter names in PEST input files are differentiated by numbers following parameter names. Note
that only one range can be provided for 'MONTH-DATA', 'FSTDEC', and 'THFST'. Output files include:
• PST file ("_microbe.pst"): PEST control file including PEST parameters,
information of model parameters, parameter groups, microbial observation, model executables,
etc. Users can modify or add PEST parameters, as necessary. An explanation of PEST parameters
can be found in the PEST manual (Doherty, 2005) at
http://www.pesthomepage.org/Downloads.php.

•	PAR2PAR TPL file ("_microbe_P2P.tpl"): PAR2PAR template file, indicating the
HSPF model input file structure (i.e., "*_microbe.uci") and locations where calibrating
parameter values are to be placed. In PEST calibration, this PEST utility (i.e., "PAR2PAR.exe")
must be executed prior to every HSPF execution to prepare the HSPF UCI file with parameters
that change proportionally. Details of PAR2PAR can be found in the PEST manual (Doherty,
2005) at http://www.pesthomepage.org/Downloads.php.
•	PEST TPL file ("_microbe.tpl"): PEST template file indicating structure of the
PAR2PAR input file, instructing how to calculate parameters with proportional change, and
providing locations where calibrating parameter values are to be placed.
•	INS file ("_microbe.ins"): PEST instruction file indicating how PEST will read the
model output file for calculating the error statistics.
•	"runHSPF.bat": Batch file that executes HSPF (i.e., WinHSPFIt.exe) and PAR2PAR (i.e.,
par2par.exe").
•	"runPEST.bat": Batch file that executes HSPF parameter calibration with PEST
The following assumptions apply when constructing the PEST input file:
•	Simulation start and end times include the original simulation period which is indicated by the
input UCI file (i.e., "*_flow.uci") and microbial observation period. Users need to ensure
"met.WDM" includes input MET data for the simulation period.
•	PEST calibrates HSPF microbial parameters during calibration which is when observation and
simulation periods overlap.
•	PEST minimizes the squared error between observations and calculations at the outlet of the
watershed, as defined in the input UCI file. If a parameter name in the User input file (i.e.,
"lnput_microbe.in") starts with "MON-" or "MONTH-", it assumes the parameter varies by
month and sets it to change proportionally throughout calibration. PEST, therefore, does not
calibrate the parameter value itself, but the proportional value related to the initial parameter
value.
•	Soil temperature and water quality modeling in the UCI file are turned on.
•	The "PLTGEN" section is added after the "FTABLES" section in the UCI file to print selected
microbial concentrations at the calibration points within the watershed in a separate output file.
Writing the "PLTGEN" section includes adding a name of the separate output file
(*_microbe.p9X), "PLTGEN" line in the "OPN SEQUENCE" section, and a "NETWORK" section
after the "EXT SOURCES" section.
