Historic Well Pumping File - Daily (*.wey)

The daily historic well pumping file contains well pumping or a daily pattern for each day of the simulation period. To simplify the preparation of daily data, StateMod allows the user to provide daily data or a pattern to be used with monthly data. When the well station variable cdividyw is set to 3 the diversion station variable cdividw is used to indicate daily data controls and any monthly data provided in the monthly direct flow demand file (*.wem) is ignored. When the diversion station variable cdividwy is set to any ID including its own (cdividw) StateMod uses daily data as a pattern to estimate daily data using the same approach described under daily streamflow data (Section 4.36).

This file is only required if the model is operated in a daily baseflow mode with wells. Data can be entered with stations entered in any order. This file is read by subroutine DAYDATA.
