**AED** is an open-source scientific modelling library written in Fortran for simulating aquatic ecosystems.

This **aed-science** repository is the home of *Modelling Aquatic Eco-Dynamics: overview of the AED modular simulation platform* online book, which describes the technical (scientific and operational) details of AED and is referred to as *"The AED manual"*. This book summarises the mathematical basis for AED's balance equations and interactions among modules. In addition, we provide a summary of parameter values for lake, river, and estuary ecosystems from a range of applications.

The [AED modelling code-base](https://github.com/AquaticEcoDynamics/libaed-water) is an open-source community-driven library of model components for simulation of **Aquatic Ecosystem Dynamics**. The model has been developed by researchers at The University of Western Australia, with active developers also from industry, government, and the broader research community. The code of the AED library consists of numerous modules that are designed as individual model ‘components’ that can be configured to facilitate custom aquatic ecosystem conceptualisations – either simple or complex. Users select water quality and ecosystem variables they wish to simulate and then are able to customize connections and dependencies with other modules, thereby constructing relevant interactions and feedbacks that may be occurring within an aquatic ecosystem. Consequently, AED is easily tailored to specific water quality problems or aquatic ecosystem investigations.
