The Newhall ModelNewhall is a Java implementation of Franklin Newhall's model for soil moisture regime determination. This implementation stems directly from the Wambeke BASIC version of the Newhall simulation model, which was a BASIC reimplementation of the original COBOL version. The model functions by taking temperature and precipitation data from a point location, interpreted as monthly averages, and simulates the behavior of the moisture profile. It functions off the concept of horizontal moisture recharge and vertical discharge within the moisture profile. Newhall is a desktop Java 5 application capable of running on all platforms supporting Java SE (Windows, Linux, MacOS X, Solaris, so forth). Eventually it can be adapted to run as an applet, running within a user's web browser without local installation. The original sources that Newhall is derived from are public domain due to age and lack of original licensing. Newhall itself is released under the New BSD open-source license. You are free to download, share, and modify the program and its source code. Documentation for Newhall is available in this project's wiki.
