Summary Also known as Model type Single Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model continental, Technical specs Supported platforms Unix, Linux Other platform Programming language Fortran90 Other program language Code optimized Single Processor Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 2008 Does model development still take place? Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through web repository Source web address http://hydro.ou.edu/CREST_downloads.html Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other -- Memory requirements -- Typical run time -- In/Output Describe input parameters Input parameters: DEM Precipitation Potential Evapotranspiration Input format ASCII, Binary Other input format Describe output parameters CREST outputs consist of several variables, including: storage depths of the vegetation canopy, the three soil layers, and two linear reservoirs, relative change of the six reservoir levels representing actual evapotranspiration from the canopy and soil layers, overland and interflow excess rain, overland and interflow runoff. Output format ASCII Other output format Pre-processing software needed? No Describe pre-processing software Post-processing software needed? No Describe post-processing software Visualization software needed? Yes If above answer is yes ESRI Other visualization software Process Describe processes represented by the model Processes represented by CREST are: Canopy interception, excess rain and infiltration water, runoff, evapotranspiration Describe key physical parameters and equations -- Describe length scale and resolution constraints -- Describe time scale and resolution constraints -- Describe any numerical limitations and issues -- Testing Describe available calibration data sets See: http://hydro.ou.edu/model.html Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets See: http://hydro.ou.edu/model.html Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing -- Other Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? -- Is there a manual available?
