A Review of EFDC Versions
Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code (EFDC) is a state-of-the-art, multifunctional surface water modeling engine that includes hydrodynamic, sediment-contaminant
Ask the Experts: What is the correct wind direction convention to use in EFDC?
While the standard meteorological convention for the wind direction is the compass direction that the wind is coming from (direction from), in EFDC the standard convention is the compass direction that the wind is going towards (direction towards).
Automated Nested Model Configuration
EEMS has been enhanced with a new feature which helps you develop nested EFDC+ models.
Calculating Flux in EEMS and Comparing against Measured Flow
EEMS has a feature that allows users to extract flow flux through a flux line (a cross-section) and compare the extracted flow to the measured flow.
Configuring Vertical Profiles
Following the implementation of COARE 3.6 in the EFDC+ code, a new option for calculating water surface heat exchange has been added.
Creating Great Animations in EEMS
Communicating your modeling results is as important as developing a good model.
Different Types of Open Boundaries and When to Use Them
Different Types of Open Boundaries and When to Use Them Understanding and effectively utilizing open boundaries is crucial for accurate modeling and simulation in environmental and coastal engineering.
Dye Volatilization Options in EEMS 12.1
When simulating chemical fate and transport, volatile chemicals at the air-water interface frequently off-gas from the water into the atmosphere.
NetCDF-CF and UGRID Formats
As modelers, we often deal with a variety of data types that encompass single-point observations, time series, regularly spaced grids

Enhancements to the EEMS GUI
As we added new features to EFDC+, our Graphical User Interface (GUI), EFDC+ Explorer (EE) has also changed to support these new features and capabilities.
Equation-based Options in Hydraulic Structures
In our previous blog, we provided an overview of simulating hydraulic structures in EEMS, where we discussed the importance of rating tables and flow lookup tables in determining flow rates based on water surface elevations.
Flow Lookup Tables in EEMS
In a recent blog, we provided an overview of simulating hydraulic structures in EEMS. As a continuation, this blog details the rating table/flow lookup table to help users understand the nuanced dynamics of hydraulic structure simulations
