Evaporation m (Water Overlay)

Attribute	Unit	Description
EVAPORATION_M	end-time, m	An array of values, each pair indicating until what time that period of evaporation will last and what amount evaporates in that period.

Notes

An array of maximum 10.000 values (5.000 pairs) can be defined.
Internally each period with amount values are converted to an evaporation rate per second at a particular time in the simulation.
The default value is set to 0.125 mm in 2 hours (0.000125 m in 7200 seconds), which corresponds to 1.5 mm per day. This value is derived from the theory described in 2.3 Gewasverdamping^[1] in the book Grondwaterzakboekje, which combines the formula of Makkink with a temperature dependent factor^[2] (which is approximately linear between 0 and 24 C). Based on the reference evaporation graph^[3], the rate was averaged for March, June, and September during cloudy, rainy days typical of heavy rainfall events.
