Summary Description

?

"This open-source version of the Nonpoint Source Pollution and Erosion Comparison Tool is used to investigate potential water quality impacts from climate change and development to other land uses. The downloadable tool is designed to be broadly applicable for coastal and noncoastal areas alike. Tool functions simulate erosion, pollution, and the accumulation from overland flow. OpenNSPECT uses spatial elevation data to calculate flow direction and flow accumulation throughout a watershed. To do this, land cover, precipitation, and soils data are processed to estimate runoff volume at both the local and watershed levels. Coefficients representing the contribution of each land cover class to the expected pollutant load are also applied to land cover data to approximate total pollutant loads. These coefficients are taken from published sources or can be derived from local water quality studies. The output layers display estimates of runoff volume, pollutant loads, pollutant concentration, and total sediment yield. Requires MapWindow GIS v.4.8.8 (open source software)" |
