Calibration results shows different pattern


Calibrated results show unusual cumulative increase pattern which is not what I expected while the layer is selected as depth averaged. I have a request if anyone knows how to correct and improve these results, please guide me.

Hi @paneruabishkar02

I am happy to assist.

I understand that you are examining the temporal evolution of the water depth at Station_1. It seems that the model is experiencing increased mass loading over time. I would suggest checking the values of water elevation and see if there is also incrementally increasing water levels. If yes, it means you may need to recalibrate the hydrodynamics of your model.

Also, could you elaborate more on the below argument?

I believe that the model results were viewed under the Model Analysis tab. The setting of model analysis forms simply identifies the coordinates of interested location, the Primary Group, the Parameter, and the observational data, as shown in the figure below. The generated time series is the water depth predicted throughout the simulation period at this particular location. Thus, the specification of “depth-average” is not necessary here. Could you please let me know if I misunderstood anything?

Please let me know if this helps.

Sincerely,
Linh

Hello Mr. @linhntk03,
Thank you so much for your assist. I did the same as the instructions given in your posted figure above. What might be the reason the calibration now gives result as, “there is no data”? I am a beginner and struggling with figuring out things in my model. I don’t know where I messed up.

Hi @paneruabishkar02

There are several ways to troubleshoot this issue. You can first doublecheck the following items:

  • Make sure that the file path to the observational data is appropriately linked, as in the figure in my previous message.
  • Ensure that the observational data is appropriately formatted. Generally, the file should contain 2 columns: Time and Value. You can also see instructions on how to structure your data in here.
  • Make sure that the model run covers the timespan specified in the Time Series Comparisons form and there are observations during this period, otherwise EE won’t show anything.

Please let me know if you still encounter the error. Good luck!

Thank you so much Mr. Linh. I will let you know if I still find some issues.
Regards,
Abi
