Detailed Description

SnowPack handles the snow layer.

Snow is conceptually very simple (see http://iland-model.org/water+cycle).

Member Function Documentation

add()

double Water::SnowPack::add ( const double &  preciptitation_mm, const double &  temperature  )

inline

additional precipitation (e.g. non evaporated water of canopy interception).

flow()

double Water::SnowPack::flow	(	const double &	preciptitation_mm,
		const double &	temperature
	)

process the snow layer. Returns the mm of preciptitation/melt water that leaves the snow layer.

calculates the input/output of water that is stored in the snow pack.

The approach is similar to Picus 1.3 and ForestBGC (Running, 1988). Returns the amount of water that exits the snowpack (precipitation, snow melt)

setSnow()

void Water::SnowPack::setSnow ( double  snow_mm )

inline

snowDepth()

double Water::SnowPack::snowDepth ( ) const

inline

depth of snow (m)

snowPack()

double Water::SnowPack::snowPack ( ) const

inline

current snowpack (mm water)
