The Curve Number (CN) method of the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) is one of the most popular methods for calculating runoff volume from a rainfall event. It is favored for its simplicity, clarity, applicability, stability, and its ability to account for most runoff-producing characteristics of watersheds, such as soil type, land use, hydrological conditions, and antecedent moisture conditions. The SCS-CN method was originally developed for small agricultural watersheds and later expanded to rural, forestry, and urban watersheds. Since its introduction, it has been applied in a variety of environments. In recent years, the method has received significant attention in hydrological literature. The SCS-CN method was first published in 1956 in Section 4 of the National Engineering Handbook of the Soil Conservation Service (now the Natural Resources Conservation Service) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The publication has been revised multiple times, but the fundamental methodology has largely remained the same. As it is an agency-specific methodology, it has not been peer-reviewed and is generally accepted in its current form. Despite some limitations and occasional questions about its credibility, it continues to be used because it performs quite well at the field level.
