    • PRINT_INPUT – If turned on, indicates that the list of lake information will be written to the listing file after it is read.
    • PRINT_STAGE – If turned on, indicates that lake stages will be printed to the listing file for each stress period if "HEAD PRINT" is specified.
    • PRINT_FLOWS – If turned on, indicates that a list of lake flow rates will be printed to the listing file.
    • SAVE_FLOWS – If turned on, indicates that the lake flow terms will be written to a specified file.
    • STAGE_FILEOUT – Indicates that the record corresponds to a specific stage. Also allows the written indication of stage information.
    • BUDGET_FILEOUT – Allows the specification of a file to which desired flow terms will be written.
    • NO_WELL_STORAGE – If turned on, indicates that well storage will not be included in the continuity equation. It is used to control discharge rate oscillations.
    • SURFDEP – When turned on, allows the a written value that defines the surface depression depth of the lake.
    • MOVER – When turned on, indicates that the Lake (Lak) Package, in this instance can be used in collaboration with the Water Mover (MVR) Package.
    • TIME_CONVERSION – Value that is used in converting outlet flow terms into time units.
    • LENGTH_CONVERSION – Value that is used in converting outlet flow terms into length units.
  • Data section – Contains the following:
    • Periods drop-down – Use the Increment Up and Down Increment up and down arrows.png buttons to select the desired period.

Auxiliary Variables Dialog

The Auxiliary Variables dialog

The Auxiliary Variables dialog is accessed by clicking Auxiliary Variables... in the Options section of many package dialogs. It is used to define an array of one or more auxiliary variable names. It contains the following sections and buttons:

  • Insert Row Row-insert.svg – Click to insert a row above the currently-selected row.
  • Add Row Row-add.svg – Click to add a row below the currently-selected row.
  • Delete Row Row-delete.svg – Click to delete the selected row.
  • Move Up Row-up.svg – Move the selected row up.
  • Move Down Row-down.svg – Move the selected row down.

Note that each variable name must be unique. If two or more variables share a name, variables added since opening the dialog will not be saved.
