TOPMODEL in GRASS

[Richard Beecham]

Its been a few weeks since I have been able to beg/steal/borrow/work out 
how to use a modem, hence the belated reply to this message.  The 
algorithms have been incorporated into the TAPESG programs by (late) Ian 
Moore, and there was a paper presented at the GIS/Environmental Modeling 
conference at Breckinbridge in September 1993.  Unfortunately the program 
is not PD - if you are interested I can provide you with contacts for 
some of Ian's collaborators.  I have also written a program to import the 
results into GRASS if you need a copy.
