segment volume

Tue, 07/01/2003 - 2:50pm — cyoder
I have an up and running model of a river/estuary system. I am interested in changes in the saltwater/freshwater lens between different scenarios. I would like to be able to calculate the amount of cubic foot-days in a set of salinity ranges for each run and compare the results. For this analysis I need to know the volume of water in each segment for a specific timestep and combine that with the salinity concentration given in the tsr file for that segment. Is there an output file that I can use to get the volume of water in each segment over time? Thanks for the help. [addsig]

You will have to hard-wire an output in the code of the model, but this is pretty straight forward. You just need to go the section of the code where the outputs are located and foucs in on the cpl file output code lines. Here you can get the widths, segment lengths and depths needed output the volume for each segment. I hope this helps. Rob[addsig]
