TL;DR: Key challenges in modeling soil processes are identified, including the systematic incorporation of heterogeneity and uncertainty, the integration of data and models, and strategies for effective integration of knowledge on physical, chemical, and biological soil processes.
Theory of SWAP version 2.0; simulation of water flow, solute transport and plant growth in the soil-water-atmosphere-plant environment
J.C. van Dam,J. Huygen,J.G. Wesseling,Reinder A. Feddes,Pavel Kabat,P.E.V. van Walsum,Groenendijk Peter E,C.A. van Diepen +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the numerical SWAP model is used to simulate vertical transport of weather, solutes and heat in variably saturated, cultivated soils, and an extensive explanation is given of program inputs and outputs based on ASCII text files.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical simulation of infiltration, evaporation and shallow groundwater levels with the Richards equation
J.C. van Dam,Reinder A. Feddes +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss a versatile, implicit, backward finite difference scheme which is relatively easy to implement and special attention is given to the selection of a head or flux controlled top boundary condition during the iterative solution of the Richards equation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inverse method to determine soil hydraulic functions from multistep outflow experiments.
Swap version 3.2 : theory description and user manual
TL;DR: This manual describes the theoretical background, model use, input requirements and output tables of SWAP 3.2, a program designed to simulate transport of water, solutes and heat in the vadose zone.
