Reply To: Zero FLow

Hi Deirdre,

Based on the pictures, yes the flow is 0 because the losses are too high. While temporal pattern may play a part in the flow being 0, this is most probably due to the design rainfall being applied being low. The rainfall at the top of the plots shows that the rainfall you have is being wiped out by the losses you have assigned. While a different, peakier temporal pattern may make the rainfall more intense it is unlikely to change the results too much when the rainfall depths are so low.

The point temporal patterns can be applied the same way as the areal temporal patterns, you just need to load in and select the point temporal patterns CSV. When you download the areal temporal patterns from the ARR data hub, there will be an option just next to it to also download the point temporal patterns CSV.

Kind regards,

Benson
