NDIV - is a flag, which when positive, specifies that diversions from segments are to be simulated.
|
ICALC - is a flag, which when positive, specifies that stream stages in reaches are to be calculated.
|
CONST - is a constant value used in calculating stream stage in reaches. It is specified whenever ICALC is greater than 0. This constant is 1.486 for flow units of cubic feet per second and 1.0 for units of cubic meters per second. The constant must be multiplied by 86,400 when using time units of days in the simulation. See also LENUNI and ITMUNI.

| • | If ISTCB1=0, seepage between each stream reach and the corresponding model cell will not be written into any file. |
| • | If ISTCB1<0, streamflow for each reach and seepage between each stream reach and the corresponding models cell will be written into the LIST file whenever the variable ICBCFL is set or "Save Budget" is specified in the Output Control Option. |
|
ISTCB2 - is a flag and a unit number for the option to store streamflow out of each reach in an unformatted (binary) file.

Up to 20 variables can be specified, each of which must be preceded by "AUXILIARY" or "AUX." These variables will not be used by the Groundwater Flow Process, but they will be available for use by other processes. The auxiliary variable values will be read after the Stop variable. |
Auxiliary parameters are used with MODPATH and the Groundwater Transport process. In MODPATH, the variable IFACE is specified with an auxiliary parameter. In the Groundwater Transport process, concentration is specified with an auxiliary parameter. The option COMPACT BUDGET AUXILIARY must be used in the Output Control when IFACE is used for MODPATH.

Data Set 3
|
[PARNAM PARTYP Parval NLST [INSTANCES NUMINST]]
Item 3 is read with free format. If PARNAM is to be a time-varying parameter, the keyword “INSTANCES” and a value for NUMINST must be entered.
PARNAM – is the name of a parameter. This name can consist of 1 to 10 characters and is not case sensitive. That is, any combination of the same characters with different case will be equivalent. All parameter names must be unique.
|
PARTYP - is the type of parameter to be defined. For the STR Package, the only allowed parameter type is STR, which defines values of streambed conductance.
|
Parval—is the parameter value. This parameter value may be overridden by a value in the PVAL file.
|
NLST - is the number of stream reaches that are included in each instance defined for the parameter.
|
INSTANCES – is an optional keyword that designates a parameter as time varying. The keyword is case-insensitive; that is, it may be entered in any combination of upper- and lower-case letters. If INSTANCES is present, it must be followed by a value for NUMINST. If INSTANCES is absent, PARNAM is non-time-varying and NUMINST should not be present.
|
NUMINST – is the number of instances that are included in the definition of a time-varying parameter, where each instance is a list of stream reaches and associated properties. If the keyword INSTANCES is present, NUMINST must be present. If the keyword INSTANCES is absent, NUMINST should not be present.

INSTNAM – is the name of an instance associated with the parameter PARNAM specified in the corresponding Item 3. The name can consist of 1 to 10 characters and is not case sensitive. That is, any combination of the same characters with different case will be equivalent. Names entered for INSTNAM must be unique for any given parameter, but names may be reused for instances associated with different parameters.

When the inflow to the first reach of a segment is the sum of the outflow from upstream tributary segments, Flow should be specified as -1. When the segment is a diversion, the Flow for the first reach is the amount to divert; however, there will be no diversion if the segment from which the diversion is obtained contains less than the value of Flow.

Stage - is the stream stage. The value of Stage is not used if ICALC>0. Stage is measured relative to the same datum as the rest of the model. It is not measured relative to the stream bottom.
|
Condfact - is the factor used to calculate streambed hydraulic conductance from the parameter value. The conductance is the product of Condfact and the parameter value.
See also "What is conductance?"
|
Sbot -is the elevation of the bottom of the streambed.
|
Stop - is the elevation of the top of the streambed. The value of Stop is used if the option to calculate stream stage is active (ICALC>0) or when the streambed has zero flow.
