The inlet pond volume in wetland systems provides a pre-treatment of the stormwater prior to its discharge into the macrophyte cell of the wetland. Pre-treatment of stormwater discharging into the wetland includes sedimentation of coarse to medium-sized particles and hydrologic control by facilitating a by-pass of flow around the macrophyte zone when the water level in the macrophyte zone has reached its maximum extended detention depth. Music models the performance of these pre-treatment functions using the inlet pond volume, assumed to be a permanent pool and defined, as the principal parameter.

The button
allows you to specify various parameters for the inlet volume. This is described in more details further below.
