Explicit ET calculation

The calculation of  ET is explicit and the removal of ET from the various stor­ages in MIKE SHE happens only at specific times in the calculation process, as described in the following:

1.       Evaporation and sublimation is removed from snow (if present),

2.       Bypass infiltration is calculated (if included),

3.       Flow from paved areas is calculated (if included),

4.       Infiltration to UZ and recharge to SZ calculated,

5.       Evaporation from the canopy is calculated,

6.       Evaporation from Ponded water is calculated,

7.       Transpiration from the unsaturated zone is calculated, and then

8.       Transpiration from the saturated zone is calculated.

9.       the UZ/SZ water balance is checked and the SZ groundwater table is corrected if necessary.

However, if the Extra Parameter option Transpiration during ponding (V1 p. 751) is specified, then the order above is changed, where

1.       Transpiration from the unsaturated zone is calculated,

2.       Transpiration from the saturated zone is calculated, and then

3.       Evaporation from Ponded water is calculated.
