Sacramento SMA

The SMA project/module provides a soil moisture model for the Soil Moisture Estimator tool and implements a custom C interface to the National Weather Service/University of Arizona Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting (SMA) model.

SMA Module Files

There are four C programs which make up the module.
The first two below are Agrineer's contribution:

 - ini.c reads ini style input variables
 - sma.c interfaces between the SME and the SMA model

The next two implement the actual model:

 - sacramento_state.c (a version of sac_sma.c)
 - fland1.c

and were originally part of the MOSCEM package developed at University of Arizona by Yuqiong Liu and others. Permission to use and distribute these files was granted by Professor Hoshin Gupta (University of Arizona) on 2009-08-28.

The last two programs were originally downloaded from Google's cached copy of http://info.science.uva.nl/ibed/research/Research_Fields/cbpg/software/code/moscem.0.tar.gz 2009-08-20 by Felix Andrews. IndieCompLabs, LLC. makes no claim on sac_sma.c (sacramento_state.c) or fland1.c.
