A field-scale modeling tool for agricultural pollution control

This publication presents CREAMS, a continuous simulation model that estimates runoff, sediment, plant nutrients, and pesticide movement from farm fields. It combines existing models into an integrated package to help agencies and firms plan best management practices. The book explains how the model uses common units for different components and provides three main divisions: model documentation, a user manual, and supporting documentation. It covers data inputs, parameter estimation, and how to interpret results, with guidance on sensitivity and potential errors. It also describes how to obtain and run the model, including data decks and test data for validation. What you’ll experience

• Clear explanations of model components for hydrology, erosion, plant nutrients, and pesticides.
• Practical guidance on input values, units, and scaling from field to program level.
• Step-by-step insight into running simulations, testing accuracy, and understanding outputs.
• Notes on applying the model in the United States and considerations for international use.
