Wetland Outflow
The wetland releases water whenever the water volume exceeds the normal storage volume, Vnor. Wetland outflow is calculated:
Vflowout=0 if V<Vnor 8:1.2.14
Vflowout=10V−Vnor if Vnor≤V≤Vmx 8:1.2.15
Vflowout=V−Vmx if V>Vmx 8:1.2.16
where Vflowout is the volume of water flowing out of the water body during the day (m3 H2O), V is the volume of water stored in the wetland (m3 H2O), Vmx is the volume of water held in the wetland when filled to the maximum water level (m3 H2O), and Vnor is the volume of water held in the wetland when filled to the normal water level (m3 H2O).
