Since dissolved oxygen (DO) is a vital factor for all aquatic organisms, many water quality models have been developed to compute the DO concentrations in water. Though biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is closely related to the DO value, the oxygen demand of deposit mud is also important. Therefore, control of mud deposition is necessary in improving the DO level in the water, which can be done by controlling flow velocity in the river. One possible method is by flushing with water from the main river or other sources. In this study, developed models are applied to determine the most suitable flushing rate for a branch tidal river which is connected to the main tidal river. These rivers are located in an urban area and receive lots of waste loads from the community. The developed branch-node model is used in water quality simulation while the Duflow package is used in river flow computation. The results obtained from these models can be used in the planning of suitable water quality improvement project.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Aquatic organisms,Dissolved oxygen (DO),Water quality management[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
