Input Node
General Description
Section titled “General Description”Input nodes represent water inputs into the system.
At each time step an input node can provide as much water as set by the Max Flow attribute. However, unlike Catchment nodes which are required to release the volume of water that is defined in their Flow attribute, input nodes are not required to release any water unless they have a non-zero Min Flow.
Input nodes are often used to represent sources that are defined by yields. They are often used to represent groundwater yields.
