*        Optional line H0 to read variable percent-of-impervious-area-with-

*   zero-imperviousness on H1 lines (new, near or at end).  These variable

*   values will be used instead of the constant PCTZER from B4 line.

*        Insert H0 line before first H1 line to read optional PZ parameter

*   on every H1 line.

*============================================================================

*H0 * No parameter required.  Omit if not using optional variable PCTZER.  

*============================================================================

*    Enter Subcatchment Data on line H1.  Repeat for each subcatchment

*                (Maximum of NW different subcatchments).

*

*          Note:  Variables with asterisks can be modified using

*          the Default/Ratio option.  If any of H2-H5 lines follow for

*          this subcatchment, must have a non-ratio/default line follow

*          this ratio/default line.  That is, cannot have H1 ratio/default

*          line followed immediately by H2 or H5 line.

*============================================================================

*       H1 Line    :

*        JK        :  Hyetograph number (based on the order

*                     in which they are input, in Group E3).

*        NAMEW     :  Subcatchment number or name.

*        NGTO      :  Channel/pipe or inlet (manhole) number for drainage.

* ***See new parameter IFLOWP below to direct flow to another subcatchment.

*        WW(1)*    :  Width of subcatchment, ft [m].

*                     This term actually refers to the physical width of

*                     overland flow in the subcatchment and may be estimated

*                     as illustrated in the text or by ratio of subcatchment

*                     area to average length of overland flow.

*        WAREA*    :  Area of subcatchment, acres [ha].

*        WW(3)*    :  Percent imperviousness of subcatchment,

*                     (percent hydraulically effective or directly

*                      connected impervious area).

*        WSLOPE*   :  Ground slope, ft/ft (dimensionless).

*        WW(5)*    :  Impervious area Manning's roughness.

*        WW(6)*    :  Pervious area Manning's roughness.

*        WSTORE1*  :  Impervious area depression storage, in. [mm].

*        WSTORE2*  :  Pervious area depression storage, in. [mm].

*============================================================================

*        Last three parameters on line H1 if Horton equation

*                   is used, INFILM = 0 on data group B1.

*============================================================================

*        WLMAX*    :  Maximum initial infiltration rate, in./hr [mm/hr].

*        WLMIN*    :  Minimum (asymptotic) infiltration rate, in./hr [mm/hr].

*        DECAY*    :  Decay rate of infiltration in Horton's equation, 1/sec.

*============================================================================

*        Last three parameters on line H1 if Green-Ampt equation

*                   is used, INFILM = 1 on group B1.

*============================================================================

*        SUCT*     :  Average capillary suction, in. [mm] of water.

*        HYDCON*   :  Saturated hydraulic conductivity of soil,

*                     in./hr [mm/hr].

*        SMDMAX*   :  Initial moisture deficit for soil, volume

*                       air/volume voids (fraction).

*

*      IF INFILM = 2 or 3, the maximum infiltration volume is entered

*        next on the H1 line.  This entry is needed in this case **OR** if

*        additional parameters IFLOWP and PZ are also entered.  Do not

*        bypass; include at least a zero if IFLOWP or PZ are entered.    

*

*        RMAXINF   :  Maximum infiltration volume, in. [mm] of water.

*============================================================================

*                Option for directing runoff from one overland flow plane to another.

*                Input of this parameter is optional and required only if redirection

*                of overland flow is desired.

*

*                IFLOWP    :  = 0, Overland flow from three subareas goes directly

*                                  to subcatchment outflow (historical procedure).

*                             = 1, Flow from impervious subarea (with and without

*                                  depression storage) flows onto pervious subarea.

*                             = 2, Flow from pervious subarea flows onto impervious

*                                  subarea (with depression storage).

*                             = 3, Case 0 above, but subcatchment flow is directed

*                                  to another *subcatchment*, indicated by NGTO.

*                             = 4, Case 1 above, but subcatchment flow is directed

*                                  to another *subcatchment*, indicated by NGTO.

*                             = 5, Case 2 above, but subcatchment flow is directed

*                                  to another *subcatchment*, indicated by NGTO.

*

*                                For IFLOWP = 3,4 or 5, runoff from one

*                                subcatchment may be directed over another.  

*

*                                For all cases of IFLOWP not equal to zero, the runoff is

*                                directed to the appropriate subarea or subcatchment 

*               uniformly over the entire subarea or subcatchment, 

*               in the manner of rainfall.  A separate continuity check 

*               is maintained so that the total amount of rainfall 

*               is not confused. 

*

*                                In all cases, pollutants, if simulated, follow the flow. 

*               However, pollutant routing uses aggregated flow, over

*               whole subcatchment, with option for variable quality

*               parameters as a function of land use.  But land use

*               coverage CANNOT correspond to pervious-impervious parts

*               of subcatchment.  If such correspondence is desired, need

*               to have a subcatchment with just one land use and just

*               pervious or impervious.  

*                                See J3 lines for information on possible pollutant removal. 

*                                -------------

*                                If H0 line is used above, insert parameter PZ here.

*                                Otherwise, may omit.

*

*      PZ           : Percent of impervious area in subcatchment with

*                     zero depression storage.  These variable PZ values

*                     are used instead of constant PCTZER on line B4. 

*                     Default is PCTZER.  If you really want zero, use

*                     a tiny, positive non-zero value for PZ.

*   Define subcatchment response to infiltration/inflow on H5 line.

*   See explanation of F3 and F4 lines for additional detail.

*

*   Any desired subcatchment may define response parameters.  Generated I/I

*   will enter in channel/pipe or inlet NGTO.  The sewered area defined on

*   the H5 line is used, not the subcatchment area.  The response is defined

*   as a fraction RDIIR from each of the three triangular UHs defined on

*   one of the F4 lines.  The fractions do not have to sum to 1.0.

*============================================================================

*  Input H5 line only for a subcatchment for which I/I response is desired.

*  Lines H1-H5 follow in groups.  Do not "cluster" all H5 lines together.

*  RDIIR(1) : Fraction of first UH response toward total I/I response.

*  RDIIR(2) : Fraction of second UH response toward total I/I response.

*  RDIIR(3) : Fraction of third UH response toward total I/I response.

*  ICURVE   : Indicator for which set of three UHs to use, from sequence

*             of F4 lines.  (E.g., if ICURVE = 2, use second set for

*             this subcatchment.)

*  line is for the month of January.  Eleven additional H5 lines will then

*  be read for each month of the year with the following parameters only:

*    RDIIR(1),RDIIR(2),RDIIR(3)
