This study was conducted to evaluate the performance of the Agricultural Policy/Environmental eXtender (APEX) model using daily storm event runoff and sediment yields collected at the outlet of the Shoal Creek watershed. The results suggest that APEX is capable of simulating conservation practices on military landscapes and that it a useful tool for scenario analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of conservation practices.
