yr_op

The year of the simulation that the reservoir becomes operational

The year specified here must be within the simulation period. If 0 is input for yr_op and , the model assumes the reservoir is in operation at the beginning of the simulation.

mon_op

mon_op

The month of the simulation that the reservoir becomes operational

If 0 is input for and mon_op, the model assumes the reservoir is in operation at the beginning of the simulation.

yr_op

area_es

Reservoir surface area when reservoir is filled to emergency spillway

For SWAT+ to calculate the reservoir surface area each day, the surface area at two different water volumes must be defined. Variables referring to the principal spillway can be thought of as variables referring to the normal reservoir storage volume, while variables referring to the emergency spillway can be thought of as variables referring to the maximum reservoir storage volume.

area_ps

Reservoir surface area when reservoir is filled to principal spillway

For SWAT+ to calculate the reservoir surface area each day, the surface area at two different water volumes must be defined. Variables referring to the principal spillway can be thought of as variables referring to the normal reservoir storage volume, while variables referring to the emergency spillway can be thought of as variables referring to the maximum reservoir storage volume.

vol_ps

Volume of water needed to fill the reservoir to principal spillway

shp_co1

Shape coefficient 1 for reservoirs

If shp_co1 is set to 0, the model will estimate this value.

shp_co2

Shape coefficient 2 for reservoirs

If shp_co2 is set to 0, the model will estimate this value.

vol_es

Volume of water needed to fill the reservoir to emergency spillway

k

Hydraulic conductivity of the reservoir bottom

If seepage occurs in the reservoir, the hydraulic conductivity must be set to a value other than 0.

evap_co

Lake evaporation coefficient
