Summary

This chapter contains sections titled:

  • Introduction

  • Scenario 1: Wet weather impact of estimated sewer spills on the designated Shellfish Waters of the Ribble Estuary

  • Scenario 2: Improvements to sewer storage assumed – Three spills per BS per UCSO storage assumed, for all catchments

  • The role of uncertainty in hydraulic modelling

  • The GLUE procedure

  • Demonstration of how GLUE could be used in CFD modelling with uncertainty

  • GLUE approaches in a dynamic framework

  • Implications of undertaking an uncertainty analysis for the Ribble Estuary Study

  • Conclusions
