CAEDYM - Computational Aquatic Ecosystem Dynamics Model

The Computational Aquatic Ecosystem Dynamics Model (CAEDYM) is an aquatic ecological model that may be run independently or coupled with hydrodynamic models DYRESM or ELCOM. CAEDYM consists of a series of mathematical equations representing the major biogeochemical processes influencing water quality. At its most basic, CAEDYM is a set of library subroutines that contain process descriptions for primary production, secondary production, nutrient and metal cycling, and oxygen dynamics and the movement of sediment.
