Constituents and Water Quality modelling (i.e. Constituent generation, Constituents filtering, and constituents in Routing and Storages) are not available in the Source public version.


For an introduction to Water Quality in Source, please see Water Quality under Fundamental Concepts in the Getting Started chapter of the Source User Guide.

In Source, the term constituents refers to materials that are generated and transported within a catchment or river system and affect water quality. Common examples include sediments, nutrients, salts and other dissolved solids. 

...

  • Constituent routing models - describe the movement of constituents along a river channel network, including exchange of constituent fluxes between floodplains, wetlands, irrigation areas and groundwater. Constituent routing models are conservative, meaning that they do not alter the total mass of constituent stored in the system
  • Constituent processing models - describe processes that can alter the mass of a constituent in a storage or river reach (link), such as via a decay process.
