A digital model of watershed hydrology successfully computed daily soil water contents of the two upper layers in a Boswell soil (Vertic Paleudalf) under an east Texas post oak ( Quercus stellata Wangenh. )–shortleaf pine ( Pinus echinata Mill. ) stand throughout 4 years (1957–1960). This experiment demonstrated the fidelity of the model components to the prototype system elements. In addition, it provided parameters useful in applying the model for elucidating the hydrology of watersheds containing oak‐pine forests.
