Some History and Hydrology of the Panama Canal
At the request of the Panama Canal Commission (now Panama Canal Authority), the Hydrologic Engineering Center participated in the development of a model to simulate the existing operation of the Panama Canal System. This model was developed to be a basis for evaluating alternative water use scenarios. The model reflected the existing two lakes (Gatun Lake and Madden Lake), navigation lockage water demands, municipal water supply, hydropower, and flood spillway flows. This paper describes some of the history related to the construction of the Panama Canal, the lock and lake design that was implemented, and some of the water uses in the basin.
