      <abstract>This model archive data release includes all models used to characterize the magnitude, 
spatial distribution and timing of groundwater (GW) flow through lakebed sediments to 
Upper Klamath Lake (UKL), Oregon, described in the associated journal article 
(https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142768). One-dimensional vertical models 
of GW flow (MODFLOW-2005) and solute transport (MT3D-USGS) were calibrated 
(UCODE) to 2014 observed dissolved silica (Si, 0.2-micron filtered) porewater 
concentrations in the upper 0.1 m of lakebed sediment to estimate GW flow and 
Si exchange across the lakebed interface. The Si-based calibrated GW flow rates 
were then used in conjunction with observed dissolved phosphate-phosphorus (PP) 
porewater concentrations in the upper 0.1 m of lakebed sediment to estimate the 
amount of PP reacted during upward flow through the lakebed sediment and the 
PP discharge to the lake. One-dimensional, vertical GW flow and heat transport 
models (VS2DH) were calibrated (UCODE) to 2015 and 2017 observed lakebed 
temperatures to provide estimates of GW-inflow rates at multiple UKL locations. 
Calibrated GW inflows were greatest in the spring and decreased through the 
summer. The magnitude and timing of the GW-lake water exchange estimates 
obtained from these methods were compared to rates obtained from a generalized 
cross-sectional GW flow model (MODFLOW-NWT) with time-varying recharge. 
The cross-sectional GW flow model demonstrated that snow-melt GW recharge 
could be transported rapidly to the lake due to the relatively high permeability and 
low specific storage of the surrounding volcanic rocks explaining the greater GW 
discharge to the lake in the spring. This USGS data release contains all the input 
and output files for the simulations described in the associated journal article 
(https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142768).</abstract>
      <purpose>The models were developed to estimate the the magnitude, spatial distribution 
and timing of groundwater flow through lakebed sediments to Upper Klamath 
Lake , Oregon. Model development and application are documented in an article 
published in the journal Science of the Total Environment 
(https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142768).</purpose>
      <supplinf>Support is provided for correcting errors in the data release and clarification of 
the modeling conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey. Users are encouraged 
to review the model journal article (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142768) 
to understand the purpose, construction, and limitations of this model. The models 
will run successfully only if the original directory structure is correctly restored. The 
model archive is broken into several pieces to reduce the likelihood of download 
timeouts. Instructions for reconstructing the original directory structure and running 
the models included in this data release and described in the journal article can be 
found in the readme.txt ASCII file which can be downloaded as part of this data 
release.</supplinf>

      <attraccr>One-dimensional vertical models of GW flow and solute transport were calibrated to 2014 observed dissolved silica (Si) porewater concentrations in the upper 0.1 m of lakebed sediment. The Si-based calibrated GW flow rates were then used in conjunction with observed dissolved phosphate-phosphorus (PP) porewater concentrations in the upper 0.1 m of lakebed sediment to calibrate the first-order reaction rate for of PP reacted during upward flow through the lakebed sediment. One-dimensional, vertical GW flow and heat transport models were calibrated to 2015 and 2017 observed lakebed temperatures (dates reported in Tables S3 and S7 of the associated journal article (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.142768). Temperature-based estimates of GW flow to UKL in 2017 obtained from the calibrated vertical flow models were used to calibrate a generalized cross-sectional GW flow model with time-varying recharge for WY2016-17. The calibrated GW flow model was then used to simulate conditions for WY 2012-2017.</attraccr>
