Evaluation period

Start date

The start date of the time series for which the output measures are calcu­lated. It is generally recommended to set the start date after the start date of the model simulation in order to include a certain warm-up period in the simu­lation to minimise the influence from the initial conditions in the calculation of the output measures.

End date

The end date of the time series for which the output measures are calculated. This is usually set to the end date of the model simulation.
