Title: SEAP: a computer program for the error analysis of a stream model, Monte Carlo methodology and program documentation

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6566605

The effect of uncertainties in ecological models can be systematically studied by Monte Carlo techniques to obtain the uncertainty of model predictions. The Monte Carlo procedure requires a program which generates random parameter values and obtains numerical solutions. This report documents the general procedures used for the Monte Carlo error analysis of a stream model, along with the computer programs and subroutines that have been developed to simplify this task. An example of the results is provided in the appendices with sufficient information given to adapt the methods to other models.
