P. Ryan Jackson Charles V. Cigrand Jessica Z. LeRoy Henry F. Doyle 20230720 model archive https://doi.org/10.5066/P9CQ6FYX This page contains results from 304 Fluvial Egg Drift Simulator (FluEgg; version 4.1.1) simulations of invasive carp eggs and larvae in the Maumee River, Ohio, under unsteady flow conditions. FluEgg models the drift and dispersion of eggs and larvae in fluvial environments. The eggs develop, changing in size and density, and eventually hatch into larvae. The simulations end when the larvae reach the gas bladder inflation stage or when the set duration of the simulation is exceeded (whichever comes first). FluEgg requires the user to provide hydraulic data to drive the drift model. The hydraulic inputs for these FluEgg simulations were generated using a one-dimensional unsteady hydraulic model of the Maumee River (see the other child items of this data release for more information about the hydraulic model) for four unsteady flow periods in which grass carp eggs or larvae were collected on the Maumee River: July 11-14, 2017, June 11-14, 2018, June 22-27, 2018, and May 28-30, 2019. The upstream end of the model domain (0.0 river kilometers) is located 280 meters downstream from Independence Dam near Defiance, Ohio, and the downstream end of the model domain is the mouth of the Maumee River at Lake Erie near NOAA tidal gage 9063085 (95.6 river kilometers). In FluEgg, the hydraulic conditions at the downstream end of the model domain extend infinitely downstream to allow eggs and larvae to drift beyond the model domain. Therefore, any drift distances greater than 95.6 kilometers should be excluded from further analysis of these data. FluEgg simulations were first run in reverse using the reverse time particle tracking algorithm (RTPT) in FluEgg using the time, location, and developmental stage of 73 captured grass carp eggs and larvae as input. Accounting for replicates, a total of 28 FluEgg simulations were run in reverse for a single invasive carp species (grass carp). Because RTPT simulations result in distributions of potential spawning areas, a series of 276 iterative forward FluEgg simulations were run to further refine the likely grass carp spawning area for the 28 groups of eggs/larvae. Each simulation included 10,000 grass carp eggs, which were assumed to have been spawned at the water surface and at the midpoint of the channel.

The hydraulic parameters needed for the FluEgg simulations were extracted using the internal linkage between FluEgg and HEC-RAS and the appropriate settings within FluEgg. Hydraulic model 20201001 Grass carp egg and larval data from the Maumee River are included in King and Kocovsky (2021). A total to 73 eggs and larvae captured in the Maumee River between 2017 and 2019 were identified and sorted into groups. Each group contained eggs or larvae with the same collection site, collection time, and developmental stage at the time of capture. Egg and larval data 20201005 An unsteady, reverse FluEgg (version 4.1.1) simulation was run for each of the 28 egg/larvae groups identified in step 2 to determine the most likely spawning area in the Maumee River for each group. A list of the input parameters and output filenames for these simulations is provided in MaumeeRiver_unsteady_fluegg_reverse_sim_list.csv. The FluEgg outputs were saved as Hierarchical Data Format 5 (HDF5) files with the naming convention Maumee_RTPT_RunX_10Kgc_TIMESTEPs.h5. The components of the naming convention are as follows. RunX: run number, TIMESTEPs: simulation timestep in seconds. 20201006 A series of forward FluEgg (version 4.1.1) simulations were run for each of the 28 egg/larvae groups identified in step 2 to refine the estimates of the most likely spawning area in the Maumee River for each group. This step was necessary because (1) reverse simulations can produce relatively large distributions of potential spawning locations and (2) dispersion is not a reversible process and can be different in forward and reverse simulations. Potential spawning locations for each group were identified using hydraulic and morphological characteristics of the Maumee River within the likely spawning reach identified in the reverse simulation. A forward simulation was run for each potential spawning location and the results were evaluated to determine if the egg/larva plume overlapped the capture location at the time of capture. The starting X position of the forward simulation that produced the greatest number of eggs/larvae at the capture site at the time of capture was taken as the most likely spawning location for each group. A list of the input parameters and output filenames for these simulations is provided in MaumeeRiver_unsteady_fluegg_forward_sim_list.csv. The FluEgg outputs were saved as Hierarchical Data Format 5 (HDF5) files with the naming convention Maumee_FRunIteration_10Kgc_TIMESTEPs.h5. The components of the naming convention are as follows. FRunIteration: forward simulation identifier (run number and iteration; F1a, F1b, F1c), TIMESTEPs: simulation timestep in seconds. Run numbers (1 to 28) for forward simulations correspond to egg/larvae group numbers and reverse FluEgg run numbers. The number of iterations per group varied. 20201013 Curvilinear coordinate system for the Maumee River The curvilinear coordinate system for the Maumee River used for this data release follows the channel centerline (provided in the data release as a KML file). The coordinates are given as streamwise (X), lateral (Y), and vertical (Z) positions. The streamwise coordinates (X) are the curvilinear distance from the upstream end of the model domain (280 meters downstream from Independence Dam).
