Monthly Binary Reservoir File

StateMod prints a direct access binary reservoir file (*.b44) that describes water supply and use for each reservoir and account. As with other reservoir outputs, there are binary outputs for the reservoir as a whole (Account 0) and for the individual reservoir accounts (Account 1, 2, 3, etc). The record length is 160 bytes. Note a typical read statement is as follows:

Read(44,rec=irecs) (dat(i), i=1,nres)

Where:

\(Irecs\) = the binary record to read

\(iy\) = the year of interest

\(iystr0\) = the starting year

\(im\) = the month of interest

\(nrsactx\) = the total number of active reservoirs (nract) and total number of active and inactive accounts (numown) (i.e. nrsactx = nrsact + numown)

\(ir1\) = the reservoir account of interest (the first account is always the reservoir total)

\(numtop\) = the total number of header cards \((numsta+numdiv+numifr+numres+numrun+numdivw+5+3*maxparm+2)\)

\(dat(i)\) = the data read

\(nres\) = the number of reservoir data elements (29)

Fields 1-15 are exactly the same as the Binary Direct Diversion file.
