Water User Water Quality
This category is available on the stand alone, no structure, or sequential water user.
None
No Water Quality is modeled. No slots are added.
Salinity
All of the following salinity slots are added.
Note: The slots are technically added by a non-visible method that indicates whether the water user is stand alone, lumped or sequential. Therefore, the methods tab on the Open Object dialog does not show the slots, but the Slots tab does.
Note: It is an error if a Return Flow Routing method other than “None” is selected and salinity is modeled. In other words, you cannot route return flows and model salinity on the same water user.
