FieldDoc integrates a mathematical model for crediting stream restoration practices implemented for the Chesapeake Bay TMDL. The model estimates nutrient and sediment load reductions using data and algorithms from the 2021 Unified Guide for Crediting Stream and Floodplain Restoration Projects in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed.
There are currently five protocols that define the nutrient and sediment removal rates associated with stream restoration practices.
The model contains separate modules for each of the five protocols. The following sections describe module inputs and outputs.
