LWFBrook90R: Simulate Evapotranspiration and Soil Moisture with the SVAT Model LWF-Brook90

Provides a flexible and easy-to use interface for the soil vegetation atmosphere transport (SVAT) model LWF-BROOK90, written in Fortran. The model simulates daily transpiration, interception, soil and snow evaporation, streamflow and soil water fluxes through a soil profile covered with vegetation, as described in Hammel & Kennel (2001, ISBN:978-3-933506-16-0) and Federer et al. (2003) <doi:10.1175/1525-7541(2003)004%3C1276:SOAETS%3E2.0.CO;2>. A set of high-level functions for model set up, execution and parallelization provides easy access to plot-level SVAT simulations, as well as multi-run and large-scale applications.
