The infiltration rate in the top layer of the model is 0.1 m/d. However, the infiltration is only applied to the top layer. The object should covering the full vertical thickness of the grid to specify the steady UZF. The UZF package should apply to columns 2 through 39.

You will set the following steady UZF properties for the object or objects specifying the UZF properties.

surfdep = 0.1

vks = 0.5

thtr = 0.1

thts = 0.45

thti = 0.105

eps = 4

Try coloring the grid with the UZF infiltration rate and ensure that the infiltration rate is set correctly. If the infiltration rate for the top of the grid is not 0.1, check to make sure that the object that is supposed to set the infiltration rate is in front of any other UZF objects. To do that, select it and right-click on it. From the pop-up menu, select "To Front."
