Changes in Caedym files> RoundLake.int

Question

Hello

I would like to change concentrations, in the file Caedym files> RoundLake.int,  I  think,  the concentrations in the Aem3d_model, are in (mg/l) but please tell me how can insert a rate for example: 2,5x10^-4 mg/l for NO3, in the file RoundLake.int? Must I Change the rate 0.1 under CO_I? Specifically, in your example in NO3, the rates are:

NO3

CO_I

0.1

1000

What  concentration represent these rates? and in what units of measurement? I would like to Know how many (mg/l) are.

Also, If we change concentrations, in the file  RoundLake.int, is necessary to change something to the wq_files.

Thank you.

Hi Evangelos

The sediment release rates in the old CAEDYM wq component are given in the .sed file.  

e.g

! NO3 sediment flux                                                            !

-0.0100           SmpNO3 (g/m2/day) : Release rate of NO3                !

0.5000            KDOS-NO3 (g/m^3)  : Controls sed release of NO3 via O   !
