34. ch This Quick Start Guide tries to fill in this need This document will take you through the successive steps to develop a river basin application using RIBASIM At each step the aim of the step is defined and the successive actions outlined which you have to do in order to reach the aim At each action the system reactions are described and the relevant screens are presented to verify your actions Use this document to get a quick overview of the RIBASIM components its basic features and the user interface The last chapter covers a number of frequently asked questions which are useful for the understanding of the various RIBASIM features For detailed information we refer to the above manuals WL Delft Hydraulics RIBASIM Quick Start Guide 2 Example analysis of Virgin river basin We will consider the following simple example river basin called Virgin river basin consisting of one main river with one tributary Presently there are no activities in the basin But this may change as there is an option for the development of an irrigation scheme which is supplied from the Virgin river see Figure 1 and which will change the flow pattern at the delta Your task 1s to quantify the consequences of this development scenario applying a simulation of the basin performance using RIBASIM Our analysis approach is to setup three simulation cases A simulation case is a combination of possible future conditions in the basin infrastructure water use
