WHETGEO 1D

WHETGEO-1D (Water HEat and Transport in GEOframe) is a physically based model simulating the water and energy budgets in a soil column. WHETGEO-1D is developed as an open-source code, adopting the Object-Oriented paradigm and a generic programming approach to improve its usability and expandability. WHETGEO-1D is fully integrated in the GEOframe/OMS3 system allowing the use of the many ancillary tools it provides.
