CENTROID

Tests the null hypothesis that two samples of recoveries belong to the same bivariate distribution.

DISTANCE

Allows design and analysis of distance sampling surveys to estimate density and abundance of a population

ECOSRCH

ECOSEARCH was developed as a first step to a testable, scientific basis for ecosystem management.

BROWNIE

Computes estimates of survival and recovery rates for 2-age class band-recovery data.

WinSLAMM (Source Loading and Management Model): Parameter and standard land-use files for Wisconsin

The SLAMM model is used to identify sources of pollutants in urban stormwater runoff and to evaluate management alternatives for reduce pollutants. These files provide stormwater flow and pollutant-concentration data for calibrating and verifying SLAMM for use in Wisconsin (WinSLAMM).

Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) for estimating groundwater recharge

The Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) model has been developed to allow estimates of potential recharge to be made quickly and easily. The code calculates components of the water balance at a daily time-step by means of a modified version of the Thornthwaite-Mather soil-moisture-balance approach.

PESTCommander

PESTCommander is an object-oriented Graphical User Interface (GUI) written in Python® that facilitates the management of model files ("file management") and remote launching and termination of slave computers across a distributed network of computers ("run management").

GENIE Version 2: A general model-independent TCP/IP run manager

GENIE Version 2 is a model-independent suite of programs that can be used to generally distribute, manage, and execute multiple model runs via a TCP/IP network. The suite consists of a file distribution interface, a run manager, a run executer, and a routine that can be compiled as part of a program and used to exchange model runs with the run manager.

TSPROC: a general time-series processor to assist in model calibration and result summarization

TSPROC (Time Series PROCessor) is a software package designed to assist in the calibration of models by editing and distilling time series datasets into more meaningful observations to be used in the optimization objective function. TSPROC uses a simple scripting language to process and analyze time series.

Modeling and Software

Hydrologic modeling and analysis tools are important components of NAWQA studies. The types of modeling and analysis tools that play a large role in NAWQA include: Statistical models and analyses, Geographic information system (GIS) analyses, Process-based models, and Hybrid statistical, GIS, and process-based models.

ModelMate

ModelMate is a graphical user interface (GUI) designed to facilitate model analysis
by software applications that invoke model simulations as external processes.

Fractured Rock Geophysical Toolbox Method Selection Tool (FRGT-MST)

The Fractured Rock Geophysical Toolbox Method Selection Tool (FRGT-MST) is an Excel-based tool for identification of geophysical methods most likely to be appropriate for project goals and site conditions.
