Hello everyone.

I would like to know the difference between the saturated hydraulic conductivity parameter (Ksat) found in the wetland hydrology file (hydrology.wet) and the one found in the soil file (soils.sol).

I usually build my model so that the wetland has a specific soil type and set the same Ksat in both hydrology.wet and soils.sol. However, I don't fully understand their differences or how they affect the model when both are enabled.

Now I also want to perform hard calibration with SWAT-editor, both I can find the Ksat parameter for wetlands.

If anyone knows which one I should consider and how I can change it in hard calibration option, I would appreciate it.

Best regards,
Karles
