Specifying Constituent Fluxes - Error

I turned on the flux for DO from algal respiration (DOAR) but my flux file gave me the flux for Epiphyte production (DOEP) which is not modeled in my application. The flux output file gave what the manual says should be DOAR the name Epiphpyte Production, source (kg/day). I then turned on the DOEP (turned off DOAR) which gave me the Algal Respiration (DOAR) flux output I wanted. I'm not sure if this is unique to my simulation or if others have also found this to be true. I posted this several weeks ago at the end of another topic in the WQ forum but wasn't sure it had been noticed.

Nick, Your are correct, the DOAR and DOEP fluxes are switched around in the code. The model thinks that the order of the flux lines in the control file is: DOAP DOEP DOAR DOER whereas in the manual the order is listed as: DOAP DOAR DOEP DOER the gui will also save a control file with the lines listed in this order. I will forward this bug to Dr. Wells, and it should be taken care of in a new update. chris
