Additionally, one of the most important quality parameters studied in the quality of water resources of dams and reservoirs is the study of water quality in terms of salinity. The salinity of the reservoirs is primarily due to the rivers leading into them. The control of error in the reservoirs is always considered because the outlet water of the reservoirs, depending on the type of consumption, should always be standard in terms of salinity. Therefore, in this study, using the available statistics, the Ce-Qual-W2 two-dimensional model was used to simulate the heat and salinity layering of the Latyan Dam reservoir. The results showed that with warming and shifting from spring to late summer, the slope of temperature changes at depth increases and thermal layering intensifies, and a severe temperature difference occurs at depth. The results of sensitivity analysis also showed that by decreasing the wind shear coefficient (WSC), the reservoir water temperature increases, so that by increasing or decreasing the value of this coefficient by 0.4, the average water temperature by 0.56°C changes inversely, and the results also show that by increasing or decreasing the value of the shade coefficient by 0.85, the average water temperature changes by about 7.62°C, directly.}, type={Article}, title={Investigation and calibration of thermal and salinity layering in surface water resources using Ce-Qual-W2 model}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/122153/PDF-MASTER/2021-04-JWLD-14-Chen.pdf}, doi={10.24425/jwld.2021.139021}, keywords={Ce-Qual-W2 model, salinity, surface water, thermal layering, water quality modelling, water resources}, }
