## Description

This MCP server provides tools to estimate surface runoff using the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) Curve Number method. It allows users to determine base curve numbers based on land use and soil groups, adjust those numbers for different Antecedent Moisture Conditions (AMC), and calculate runoff depth and volume for specific rainfall events. Use `get_base_curve_number` to find the initial CN, `calculate_adjusted_cn` to account for soil wetness, and `calculate_runoff_depth` to find the final runoff amount.

## Tools

### calculate_runoff_depth
Calculates the depth of water that will run off given a specific rainfall event

### calculate_adjusted_cn
Adjusts the base Curve Number based on the current Antecedent Moisture Condition

### calculate_runoff_parameters
Calculates the physical runoff potential constants (Potential Maximum Retention and Initial Abstraction) for a specific CN

### generate_storm_series_runoff
Predicts runoff depth for a sequence of different storm events for a single landscape

### get_base_curve_number
Determines the standard Curve Number for a specific land use and soil group

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What is the SCS Curve Number method?**
It is an empirical model used to estimate direct runoff from precipitation in small watersheds based on soil type and land cover.

**How do I account for wet soil conditions?**
You can use the `calculate_adjusted_cn` tool to adjust the base Curve Number for AMC I (dry), AMC II (average), or AMC III (wet) conditions.

**Can I calculate runoff for multiple storm events at once?**
Yes, the `generate_storm_series_runoff` tool allows you to provide a list of rainfall depths to predict a series of runoff results.
