ChesROMS is developing a ROMS model of the Chesapeake Bay to help in the prediction of Harmful Algal Blooms. We hope to catalyze a new method of community modeling with involvement beyond the core researchers of the ChesROMS project.

We have moved, the project is now at http://distancesampling.org

Input 1 - A training dataset (multiple observations) of up to four variables (predictors) against one (response variable) Input 2 - A test dataset (multiple observations) of the same four variables with unknown response variable Output - Calculation of the response variable for each test observation using fuzzy logic or fuzzy rule-based Bayesian algorithms HABFUZZ is a habitat model, which can be used in ecohydraulic modelling applications for the calculation of the instream habitat suitability in various discharge scenarios in a simulated river reach. It comes with no graphical user interface but it's a one-click tool. Just provide your input and let HABFUZZ provide you the output.

MACROMS is a software to model the coastal ocean circulation and fish larvae transport for the USA Mid-Atlantic region, which covers estuaries and continental shelves of NYC, NJ, DE, MD, PA, VA and NC. Rutgers ROMS model is applied for this study.

Oxygen Model for Microtidal Estuaries and Lagoons-OMMEL. Initially designed to describe O2 dynamics in Alfacs Bay (Ebre Delta, NW Mediterranean, Spain), but usable for any marine coastal ecosystem with small tides. http://tdr.cesca.es/TDX-0222108-113814

A model of the water, C, nutrients and microbial communities of the Amazon River. This project is still in development, the code may not be functional at this time. Most recent code version is under Files, labeled ROCA-date

Sandia National Laboratories’ (SNL) environmental assessment modeling tool helps optimize the design of MHK-turbine array layouts within ocean, tidal, and river systems to balance energy generation efficiency with environmental considerations. The new tool, SNL-EFDC, is an augmented version of US EPA’s Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code (EFDC) and includes; (1) a new module that simulates energy conversion (momentum withdrawal) by MHK turbine-like devices including commensurate changes in the turbulent kinetic energy and turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, (2) new, advanced sediment dynamics routines, and (3) augmented water quality modules. SNL-EFDC has been verified and validated against flume measurements of flow around sub-scale turbines and actuator disks.

WHATCH’EM simulates the highly non-linear manner in which atmospheric conditions and container characteristics determine water temperature and height, leading to results that are not always intuitive and likely not simulated by simpler empirical models. WHATCH’EM has the capacity to be utilized for other mosquitoes and other container-inhabiting arthropods.

This is an simple ecological model for lakes and reservoirs that contains a very detailed description of the most relevant nitrogen processes. The model is not very complete, but the main intention is to develop a library to be coupled with other models and use the full-mixed model as a testing version. A lot of things can be improved. I will read all the suggestions but I cannot promise that I will include all of them. Every new part of the code will contain the name of the author. If someone contributes improving the capabilities of this model in a substantial way, I will include that person as co-author of the model in the next version release. I hope this will promote people to contribute. Of course, fixing bugs or minor changes will also be mentioned with the corresponding author. Thanks a lot. I hope this can be the seed of a Open Source Community of Ecological Modellers.

GeoSciPy is a set of C and Python functions that provide an API for all aspects of Geoscience and Remote Sensing Applications. Functions include reading/writing of many data formats, images, vectors, ..., and processing of images, vectors, ... including map projections, ... The library is written C, using HDF5 as the file format for storage of all remotely-sensed data and ancillary data, as well as processed data. The C functions assume a particular format for the HDF5 file contents, and provide functions for reading and writing data to such files. There is also a Python API that provides a procedural as well as an object-oriented interface to these functions. A Python GUI for interacting with such datasets is also part of the project. While there are other open-source GIS, and image-processing packages available, this one is designed to be comprehensive, work on 3 major platforms, user-extensible, fast, and able to handle huge datasets.

This project looks at the development of a set of generic models (box,chamber, photo-chemical trajectory) to use with the MCM (www.mcm.leeds.ac.uk). The software provides a tailored FORTRAN interface to the CVODE solver (http://www.llnl.gov/CASC/sundials
