Introduction

• Soure code for the FLUXOS-OVERLAND model. The original code (named as FLUXOS) was written in Fortran and consisted of the coupling of 2dmb, +QeS2, MODFLOW and MT3DMS.

• Modifications (from FLUXOS to FLUXOS-OVERLAND):

  • Converted to C++
  • Uses: Armadillo template-based C++ library for linear algebra
  • Removed: MODFLOW and MT3DMS (currently there is no baseflow)
  • WINTRA algorithm was integrated for calculation of runoff-soil interactions and nutrient release (paper)

• Reading material:

  • Theoretical background (original FLUXOS):
    • EMS paper
    • PhD thesis
  • Applications (original FLUXOS):
    • STC paper
    • JCH paper
    • JAWRA
  • FLUXOS-OVERLAND
    • Poster

Branches

Active

• main: primary branch with latest verified updates to the working code
• development: used to verify updates from feature branches before merging with main
• supporting_scripts: feature branch for development of supporting Python and MATLAB scripts

To be Archived

• adesolver: Adection-Dispersion-Reaction equation solver was converted to C++ and debugged
• adesolver_wintra: the wintra algorithm was added

Notes

• Note that the primary branch (formerly known as "master") was renamed as "main"
• If using a local clone with the previous naming scheme, the clone may be updated using the following Git commands:

$ git branch -m master main
$ git fetch -p origin
$ git branch -u origin/main main

Compiling

• CMake: CMakeLists.txt is provided
• Library dependencies: Armadillo
• CMake minimum version: 3.10

Execution

• Create a folder with name "Results" inside the working directory where the input files and executable are located
• input files (see example in Working_example folder)
  • primary input file: e.g., modset
  • DEM file (Esri ASCII-format raster with headers removed -> this will be fixed soon)
  • DEM of the basin (sub-set of the main DEM file for FLUXOS to know where the boundaries of the basin are)
  • Snowmelt timeseries (time,mm/day)
• to execute: ./fluxos_cpp "argument_1" (where "argument_1" is the primary input file)

Visualization

• Output stored in "Results" folder may be visualized using VisIt:

Supporting Scripts

• Used for post-processing
• See "fluxos_supporting_scripts" folder

Working Example

• See "Working_example" folder
• Updates coming soon!
