Capabilities
CAMPS is a model chain that predicts the effects of toxic, acidifiying and eutrophying pollutants (through deposition of metals, nitrogen and suphur) on soils and soil water leachate, ie: pH; dissolved organic carbon fluxes; and heavy metal concentrations (stocks and flows). It is a point model that has been upscaled to run the UK on a 1 x 1 km grid. CAMPS consists of the IDMM model (see separate entry) driven by the MADOC model (see separate entry) which is part of the N14CP family (see separate entry).
Lifecycle
CAMPS was developed from 2021 to 2022 (to be published). Investment to date approx 1 person-year.
Uniqueness
CAMPS uniquely incoporates effects of soil acidity (pH) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on metal fluxes, whereas other available models do not include these processes.
Partners
CAMPS was developed by UKCEH.
Access
CAMPS is open access: available to use at no cost by request to the model owner.
Funding sources
Development of CAMPS was funded by UKRI-NERC National Capability (UK-SCAPE programme: SPEED project).
Users
-
CAMPS is currently used by UKCEH researchers.
