Pumping
The methods in this category represent whether pumping is modeled from this aquifer.
* None
No pumping is modeled. This is the default method.
* Input or Linked
The pumping out of the aquifer is modeled by specifying the pumped flow or linking it to another object, often a water user.
Slots Specific to This Method
 Available for Pumping
Type: Series
Units: Flow
Description: This is the amount of water that can be pumped from storage.
Information: If not input, it is calculated based on the previous computational timestep’s storage value and averaged over the computational timestep. The values are at the run timestep.
I/O: Optional input
 Pumped Flow
Type: Series
Units: Flow
Description: This is the amount of water pumped from storage. A positive value is out of the aquifer.
Information: If not input, it is should be linked to a slot on another object. Often the other object is providing the values. The values are always at the run timestep.
I/O: Optional input or propagated from another object.
Method Details 
This method computes an internal variable that represents the average pumped flow out of the aquifer:
