* For plants to evaporate water, both the [[terrain root depth m (Water Overlay)|ROOT_DEPTH_M]] and the WATER_EVAPORATION_FACTOR must be appropriately configured.
* When a construction is present in any given location, the values for evaporation in the underground will overrule any values set by [[Hydrological attributes of terrains (Water Overlay)|terrain]] in the same location. To model underground evaporation without a construction, set these attributes on the applicable terrain type instead.

To model underground evaporation without a construction, set these attributes on the applicable terrain type instead.
* The groundwater level reduction is inversely proportional to the [[terrain water storage percentage (Water Overlay)|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 underground layer decreases.

Plants

Terrains can be configured with plant-related attributes, similar to constructions configured as crops and foliage, allowing it to draw water from the underground 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 construction is present in any given location, the values for evaporation in the underground will overrule any values set by terrain in the same location. To model underground evaporation without a construction, set these attributes 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 underground layer decreases.
