Updating from old UBCWM to Raven
Posted: Mon Dec 12, 2016 1:17 pm
Hello,
I've been trying to bring an existing UBCWM into Raven but I am having issues. I've been following the .WAT file of the older UBCWM to update the Raven files but I end up with a different modelled output than the original.
I'm thinking my problems lie in the water distribution and routing times. I've been building from the Alouette tutorial file which uses 6 soil layers (Top soil, Int1,Int2,Int3,GWUpper,GWDeep). I think I am getting things mucked up from the original UBCWM which has three fast runoff constants (rain, snow, glacial), two interflow constants (rain, snowmelt) and a time constant for both the upper and deep groundwater.
Is there an easier way to convert the older UBCWM to Raven? I've tried Green Kenue but it returns errors.
Thanks!
