Parameter Field File Specifications¶
The parameter field file is used to supply soil parameter information to the simulation. It is supplied as H5 File.
The Parameter Field Generator module always generates files compliant to this specification.
The structure of this file is as follows:
H5Group: parameters
Attributes:
array: extensions : n-dimensional spatial extensions of the field
bool: millerSimilarity : whether Miller scaling shall be used
string: parameterization : Only “vanGenuchten” supported
double: variance : Variance of the Gaussian random field for Miller scaling
H5Group: vanGenuchten
Datasets for each parameter in a n-dimensional field. The extensions of all datasets must match. Additionally, there is the raw_field dataset, specifying the natural logarithm of the Miller scaling factor.
- H5Dataset: alpha
- H5Dataset: k0
- H5Dataset: n
- H5Dataset: tau
- H5Dataset: theta_r
- H5Dataset: theta_s
- H5Dataset: raw_field
