Hydrologic budget and dynamics of a large oligotrophic lake related to hydro-meteorological inputs.

Highlights: [•] A turbulent diffusion transfer sub-module was developed and coupled to DLM-WQ. [•] Isohyetal lines were developed to estimate precipitation distributions. [•] The LSPC watershed model was used to generate the stream flows and pollutants. [•] The modified DLM-WQ estimates hydrologic budget accurately. [•] Estimated and measured lake water levels were in excellent agreement. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
