To answer management questions about nutrient related water quality in San Francisco Bay, hydrodynamic and biogeochemical models have been developed. This report outlines the development of both of these models. Section 2 is the description and validation of the hydrodynamic model, previously completed in December 2017 for the San Francisco Bay Interim Model Validation Report, but included here for completeness. Section 3 of this report covers the description and validation the biogeochemical model.
