Abstract

This chapter presents the hydrodynamic and water quality modeling of the Manila Bay-Laguna Lake system. Laguna Lake is a freshwater, inland, and multipurpose lake for fisheries, domestic water supply, flood control (as temporary flood storage of Metro Manila), and hydropower generation. Manila Bay is a major water body surrounding major cities of Metro Manila and the neighboring provinces of Pampanga, Bulacan, Bataan, and Cavite. It is connected to Laguna Lake through Pasig River. The specific modeling study presented is dissolved oxygen in Manila Bay as an index of the health of the bay and salinity intrusion into Laguna Lake which is beneficial to fish farming but undesirable to domestic water supply use.
