Support Parameter Estimation (PEST) supplemental file

[timcera]

There is a PESTSU file that can be specified in the FILES block.

FILES
<FILE>  <UN#>***<----FILE NAME------------------------------------------------->
MESSU      24   3a.ech
WDM1       25   sjrb_met.wdm
WDM2       26   sjrb_lsj.wdm

BINO       83   3a_reach.hbn
PESTSU     41   3a_hspf.sup
END FILES

And then in most tables you can specify a record to look up values in the PESTSU file. The record ID to lookup is quoted by "~".

*** 3A REACH 1 - Lake Dias Outlet      Location  301
    1     ~111130101~
    2     ~111130102~
  END PWAT-PARM2

The contents of the 3a_hspf.sup file would look something like:

111130101    7
0.2    8.0      0.7    400.     .001    0.0        .98
111130102   7
0.21    8.0      0.745634223223    400.     .001    0.04        .994

Where a record covers two lines, the first line is the record ID and the number of values on the second line that are used to fill out the table in the UCI file. The second line is space-delimited values. This was to support the parameter estimation process which required high precision that was larger than the 10 spaces typically available in the standard UCI table. Note need a value for each parameter, no defaulting.
