Webinar - Java Newhall Simulation Model (7/2012)
In response to a USDA-NRCS need to better understand soil climate in soil survey, the JAVA Newhall Simulation Model or jNSM was developed in 2011. jNSM is an update to a traditional soil climate simulation model called Newhall Simulation Model (NSM) by Franklin Newhall (Van Wambeke et al., 1992; Van Wambeke, 2000). The jNSM software is a mesoscale model that is appropriate for use in regional geospatial analyses that support the MLRA update of published digital soil geographic databases (SSURGO/STATSGO2). This software can be used with monthly, serially complete records from weather stations (Historical Climate Network, US Climate Reference Network, National Weather Service Cooperative Network), Soil Climate Analysis Network (SCAN) stations, and local soil climate monitoring sensors. USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
