.... ETSIM Logical variable = T if evapotransp_r- ation (plant-roo__extra_ion_ _s _ h__ sim__l_at any time during the simu- lation; otherwise = F. Line B-15 is present only if BCIT = T or ETSIM = T. B-15 NPV Number of ET periods Uo be simulated. NPV values for each variable required for the evaporation and/or evapotranspiration options must be entered on the following lines. If ET variables are to be held con- stant throughout the simulation code, NPV = I. ETCYC Length of each ET period, T. Note: For example, if a yearly cycle of ET is desired and monthly values of PEV, PET, and the other required ET variables are available, then code NPV = 12 and ETCYC = 30 days. Then 12 values must be entered for PEV, SRES, HA, PET, RTDPTH, RTBOT, RTTOP, and HROOT. Actual values, used in the program , for each variable are determined by linear interpolation based on time. _ Line B-16 to B-18 are present only if BCIT = T. B-16 PEVAI Potential evaporation rate (PEV) at beginning of each ET period. Number of entries must equal N'PV, LT-I. To conform wi_h the sign convention used in most existing equations for potential evaporation, all entries must be greater than or equal to 0. The program multiplies all nonzero entries by -I so that the evaporative flux is treated as a sink ra_her than a source. B-17 RDC(1,J) Surface resistance to evaporation ($RE$) at beginning of ET period, L-_. For a uniform soil,…
