Upstream sediment load boundary condition

[kuria kiringu]

Hello 

In the case of delineated sub catchments, I have noted the model only accepts upstream flow as boundary conditions. Is there a way of inputting the sediment loads?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

That is an interesting question. I think you are correct that the model only accepts upstream flow as boundary conditions and there is no way of inputting sediment loads (in the manual it says that "sediment boundary condition routines have not yet been implemented"). I also cannot think of a way round this apart from modelling the whole of a catchment.
