Abbreviation in Name file

CRCH

Purpose

The CRCH Package routes a fraction of the diffuse areal recharge (assigned in the traditional MODFLOW RCH Package) into nodes of conduit pipes. This functionality may be useful in scenarios where rainfall runs directly into karst features, such as sinkholes or swallets. If activated for CFPM1 or CFPM3 simulations, the CRCH Package can route a fraction or all of the diffuse areal recharge into a specified conduit node. The routed direct recharge will be subtracted from the diffuse recharge for MODFLOW water-budget calculations. Note the RCH Package must be active when the CRCH Package is active. This file is only used for CFP Modes 1 and 3.
