Change in Moisture Storage Formula Elements

Variables
Change in Moisture Storage
Change in Moisture Storage is the total amount of water that is stored within the specified reservoir or catchment area.
Symbol: ΔS
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Precipitation
Precipitation is the primary water input to the hydrologic cycle and is evaluated for all water budget calculations.
Symbol: P
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Surface Runoff
Surface Runoff water, from rain, snowmelt, or other sources, that flows over the land surface, and is a major component of the water cycle.
Symbol: Sr
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Subsurface Outflow
Subsurface Outflow is the flow of water beneath earth's surface as part of the water cycle.
Symbol: Go
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Actual Evapotranspiration
Actual Evapotranspiration is the quantity of water that is actually removed from a surface due to the processes of evaporation and transpiration.
Symbol: Eact
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
