Compendia of parameter values for US Army Corps of Engineers models

One of the more challenging aspects of calibrating and applying AQUATOX to new waterbodies is finding appropriate values for the many biotic and chemical parameters contained in the model. The following are some of the data sources we have commonly used in the development of AQUATOX. Although they are old, they draw on an extensive literature that generally does not appear in present-day Internet searches.
