Attribute: GW-N [m³/m²/TU] (element-wise) (horizontal and 3D model only),
This data type is used to specify the groundwater recharge per element.
GW-N rates can be assigned to vary transiently (see transient GW-N data).
The data type GW-N corresponds to the attribute FLAE with a * in the 16th column. For transient calculations, make sure that a uniform attribute is set for the groundwater recharge in the model file and in the transient file, i.e. either FLAE or GW-N. If both attributes are used, they are regarded as different data types and the rate on the element is added/summed together.
