(2) If you need the extra control of setting an NDTARG, then use Ponds rather than Wetlands as your modeling tool; they are functionally very similar. (3) In the standard release of SWAT, any infiltration from surface- water bodies (Ponds, Wetland, Reservoirs, Channels) gets trapped in shallow aquifer storage. There is a beta version of SWAT that addresses this issue, but I don't know how widely available it currently (or if it's revised algorithms have been incorporated into the "standard" version of SWAT). In any case, if WET_K > zero, you will be losing water from your system - when one would think this water should contribute to base flow. So beware of such losses, as they can significantly alter your water balance. I presume this is where your "10% reduction in flow" went to. Otherwise, why would you expect a reduction in flow? 241-Lake Representation in AVSWATX Question: I seek some help regarding SWAT model. I am working on surface water quality and quantity modeling of a long lake (approximately 233 km2) which is in the middle of a watershed. I would like to request you for a suggestion about how to represent the lake in AVSWATX model. I have tried in many ways and could not get determine how to represent the lake in the AVSWATX. Attached are my trials and the actual lake watershed boundary that i should get at the end of my watershed delineation. Please suggest/help me about how to represent lake in AVSWATX. 167
