CatchmentKinematicWave Fields

Actual evaporation Unit: [m/s]

Actual evaporation at time N, Unit: [m/s]

Actual infiltration, loss. Unit: [m/s]

Infiltration at time N. Unit: [m/s]

Actual rain depth. Unit: [m]

Actual rain intensity. Unit: [m/s]

Additional constant flow added to the total runoff Unit: [m3/s] Default: 0

Additional constant flow at start of time step

When raining, if true the evaporation is applied at the beginning of the time step, correcting the net rain (in wet periods).

If false, evaporation is applied at the end of the time step on non-empty storages in the catchment.

In dry periods, this is not used. if EvaporationFromTimeSeries is disabled, this is also not used (since the InitialLossRecoveryRate is only applied in dry periods).

Historically MIKE has set this to true and MIKE URBAN to false.

Total area of catchment. Type: Catchment area. Unit: [m2]. Default: 1e8 (100 km2).

True if infiltration shall occur also after rain, used in Horton infiltration depth calculation from INI file Default: True

Evaporation boundary source

Rainfall boundary source

Temperature boundary source

True if the snow module is activated.

The most recent check point time.

Time step used in the simulation, it may change. It is set in Prepare to _timeStep, and can be updated by individual catchment models when required, i.e. it may differ from _timeStep.

Return the end time of the catchment simulation. This is set during prepare, and the catchment must make sure not to run beyond this time.

Evaporation that must be applied during the calculation time step. unit: [m/s]

True if evaporation is enabled, and an evaporation boundary has been defined.

If set to false the initial recover rate is used during dry periods. Default: False

Global dry depth limit from INI file in Kinematic wave: used when InfiltrationAfterRain == true Default: 1e-6 Unit: [m]

Maximum value of InitialLossStorageDepth Unit: [m] Default:

Initial loss recover rate Unit: [m/s] Default: 5e-5 m/h = 1.2 mm/day

Initial loss storage depth. Unit: [m]

Initial loss storage depth at time N. Unit: [m]

Loss, other than infiltration which goes into _actInfiltration (in another unit). Unit [m3/s]

Loss at time N. Unit: [m3/s]

Maximum flow

Minimum flow

Potential evaporation Unit: [m/s]

Rainfall that must be applied during the calculation time step measured in m/s. unit: [m/s]

Rainfall that must be applied during the calculation time step measured in m/s, at time N. unit: [m/s]

Hydrological reduction is the runoff reduction factor, accounts for water losses caused by e.g evapo-transpiration, imperfect imperviousness, etc. on the contributing area. Unit: [-] Default: 0.90

Total runoff from catchment at present time step. Unit: [m^3/s]

Runoff at time N. Unit: [m3/s]

Diagnostics instance for a Catchment. Used during runtime.

Snow storage Unit: [m]

Snow storage at time N. Unit: [m]

Protected start time of catchment data - the earliest time for which the catchment can return data

List of Lids

Temperature that must be applied during the calculation time step. Note: the temperature is given in degrees Celsius, which is not SI unit! unit: [degCelcius]

Variable holding information on the latest calculated time

Last time the state of this catchment was updated (Update(DateTime) was called)

Time of maximum flow

Time of minimum flow

Variable holding information on the latest calculated time

Time step used in the simulation, or initial time step if the time step can change.

Total volume of additional inflow

Total volume of loss

Total volume of rain

Total volume of runoff

TSBuffer to use when accessing time series objects Set in Catchments.Add(). If not set, then the inheritors must create a TSBuffer before using it.

Flag telling if initial conditions is taken from a hotstart file Default: false

Volume on ground added after UpdateStorage

Volume on ground after routing

Volume on ground before routing

Revert to dry-timestep algorithm from Release 2016

Revert to old draining order (Release 2016 and earlier). Set to true to drain in same order as in MOUSE engine.

Reverse draining drains in order: wetting, storage, depth. Hence, when storages are full, wetting and storage will be drained and not depth, depth will be higher and give more runoff. This is visible in low-flow conditions.
