Hi Viviane,
Correct.
You also need to remember that your 2D OL flow will have a low velocity because it will be very shallow. If the travel distance is too far, then the OL may quickly infiltrate or evaporate as it travels over the land surface.

Hi Tian,
1. you can change the Item Type in the Grid Editor from Elevation to Bathymetry.
2. the land use has to be in the Item Type of Grid Codes. Then each unique Grid Code is assigned a Leaf Area Index and Root Depth as a constant value or a time series, or linked to an item in the vegetation database.
3. you could create an instantaneous temperature dfs0 file with your min temperature at 03:00 and your max temperature at 13:00.

Hi Tian,

1. If you have a Theissen polygon and a dfs0 time series of precip for each polygon, then you don't need to convert this to a grid. You can simply input the Theissen polygons (as a polygon shp) and then add the dfs0 time series file as the input for each polygon.
In the main precip dialog, chose the polygon option. Then, a subtree item should be added for each polygon, where you can specify the dfs0 file. The only requirement is that the polygon file needs to have the same GIS projection as the Model Domain and Grid.

2. To make the land use option available, you have to turn on UZ and ET in the main Simulation Specification dialog. Then, you should have a data tree item called Land Use. Here you can specify a polygon file or a dfs2 grid file with the vegetation distribution. For each vegetation type, you need to specify a leaf area index and a root depth. These can be specified as a time series directly, or via the vegetation database (.etv file).
Defining the soil distribution is the same. Then for each soil zone, you have to specify a soil column and a vertical discretization. For the soil types, you need to create a .uzs file. I have attached a .uzs for the standard UNSODA soils.

3. Temperature is more complicated. Air temperature is used for the snow melt calculation and is defined under Climate when you have turned on the snow melt. But, soil temperature is derived from the air temperature and is part of the water quality model.

I hope this helps.

Viviane,
In principle, you can simulate rivers with MIKE SHE without including MIKE 11. However, in this case, the rivers would be simulated as 2D overland flow. This would be substantially slower than MIKE 11, and would not allow for such things as control structures (eg wiers, gates).

Douglas

Hi Tian,
Each of the data items in MIKE SHE require a specific Item Type. This is part of the overall error checking the user interface. The Item type for topography is "Elevation". This can be changed by opening the dfs2 file in the Grid Editor, and selecting Edit/Items... from the top menu.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
I am not sure if you have posted this message on the correct board.
There is no "Sound" tutorial for MIKE SHE.
Cheers,

Hi,
Are both wells pumping from the same cell?
The x,y coordinates might be the coordinates of the centre of the cell.

Hi 
Sorry for not seeing this sooner.
Have you been able to solve your origin issue?
The problem is related to the fact that MIKE SHE cannot interpolate integer grid code values, such as vegetation and soils zones.
So, you will get this error if your vegetation grid code file does not line up exactly with your model grid.

Hi Vincent,
The water balance is created at the same interval as your saved output.
So, if you save all your output on a 24 hour basis, then your water balance will also be daily.
When you run the water balance, one of the output options is to extract a  time series of the Total Water Balance.
You can bring this into Excel and create time series graphs of the items that you want.

Is this what you are looking for?

Hi,
Have you been able to get the AUTOCAL to run?
I can't really answer your question without some more information related to how you are trying to launch AUTOCAL, etc.
