Terrains can be configured with plant-related attributes, similar to Buildings configured as crops and foliage, allowing it to draw water from the ground and evaporate it.

Notes

  • For plants to evaporate water, both the ROOT_DEPTH_M and the WATER_EVAPORATION_FACTOR must be appropriately configured.
  • When a Building is present in any given location, the values for evaporation in the ground will overrule any values set by terrain in the same location. To model ground evaporation without a Building, set the attributes of the Building on the applicable terrain type instead.
  • The groundwater level reduction is inversely proportional to the WATER_STORAGE_PERCENTAGE, as the contribution of a given volume of water to the groundwater level increases when the capacity for water storage in the ground layer decreases.
  • When there is no Building present on the surface, and the terrain has a WATER_EVAPORATION_FACTOR of 0, the amount of evaporation which takes place in that location is 0.
