Good Morning,
I am getting the warning below. I am unable to find the parameter SNOW_SWI in the user manual. Would you please explain the parameter.

"WARNING : The required global parameter SNOW_SWI was auto generated with value 0.050000"

Thank you
Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth

The SNOW_SWI parameters refers to the irreducible water saturation fraction of snow (as a percentage of snow porosity), which can be inputted to the model as:

Code: Select all

:IrreducibleSnowSaturation 0.05

This is a global parameter, so it can be defined basically anywhere in the .rvp file.

Cheers,
Rob
