Ground bottom flow formula (Water Overlay)

Hoe is kwel geïmplementeerd in het Tygron Geodesign Platform? (Dutch only)

Underground seepage from outside the project area is calculated per grid cell. The formula is based on the principles used in the formula of Pankow for estimating seepage^[1].

The water level change due to seepage is calculated using the following formula:

Finally, the actual amount of water seeping into the ground from the bottom is calculated as followed:

Notes

The calculated Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Delta wl_{x,y}} is essentially the change in groundwater level, inherently taking into account the porosity of the soil. The final Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Delta s_{x,y}} is representative of the actual amount of water, i.e. the height of the water, if the relevant quantity of water wasn't in the underground but sat on the surface instead.

A seepage head lower than the water level in the project is also allowed, resulting in water seeping out to a region outside the project area.
