Hydrologic models are widely viewed as essential tools for water resource planning and management because they help create an understanding of complex water management problems, provide aggregation of the available data, and allow analysis of “what-if” scenarios.

WRIME has earned recognition as an industry leader in integrated hydrologic modeling. One of our principals, Dr. Saquib Najmus, wrote the Hydrologic Modeling chapter of the AWWA Water Resources Planning Manual (2001). During their 20-year careers, Dr. Najmus and Dr. Ali Taghavi have co-authored several integrated hydrologic models, reservoir operations models, and water quality models that have been widely used in the western United States. Four of our modeling staff possess Ph.D.s in civil/environmental engineering, and we have extensive experience in a wide suite of existing public domain and proprietary models. WRIME offers new model development services to clients if no existing models can meet the project needs.
Our unique approach to the modeling project is based on the following principles:
- Hydrologic models are problem-solving tools; Every problem does not need a model; Models should be representative of field conditions; and
- Models should be defensible and well documented.
WRIME uses a seven-step modeling process that ensures the credibility, defensibility, and cost effectiveness of a model.
WRIME’s goal-oriented approach is different than an open-ended approach, which can often lead to never-ending scientific experimentation focused on polishing mathematical and computational methods and techniques.

WRIME also offers water quality modeling services. Our in-depth knowledge of technical issues surrounding water quality problems at local and watershed scales, combined with our effective modeling approach, enables us to provide outstanding services in water quality analysis and evaluation.
We have perfected the water modeling projects and our track record of on-time and on-budget delivery of credible models for our clients is a testament to our abilities. |
