Synopsis
This book, a collaborative exploration between Soil and Water Management Research Unit and Michigan State University, presents a comprehensive overview of NTRM, a groundbreaking simulation model that predicts the movement and interaction of elements in an agricultural, natural, and reclaimed environment. NTRM is a versatile and flexible tool, built to handle virtually any situation and simulate almost every combination of crop and soil management systems. NTRM offers a unique approach by simulating changes in soil water, chemical composition, biological parameters, heat capacity, and a wide range of other factors over the course of days, weeks, and months. The model is highly customizable, allowing users to evaluate complex interactions between tillage practices, fertilizer and water management strategies, and N cycle dynamics, and is easily adaptable for use on a wide range of soil types. This book is a practical and instructive guidebook for the agricultural and environmental communities, giving thorough guidance on the use and application of NTRM to maximize performance, and includes sample runs and complete installation instructions. With over 30 detailed figures, this book is an essential read for soil and crop scientists, agricultural researchers, and environmental modelers. It also serves as a valuable resource for students and professionals involved in soil management, agricultural engineering, environmental quality modeling, and related fields.
