TREX
Pueblo Hydrology Examples
11-JAN-2010

There are three (3) examples to run TREX for the Arkansas River
Watershed, at Pueblo Dam, Colorado, USA


1. An example demonstrating rainopt2.  This is Probable Maximum
Precipitation, with rainfall spatially distributed by subbasins - a
design rain grid.

Input file is:  pueblo-pmp-rainopt2.in


2. An example demonstrating rainopt2.  This is the Princeton radar
rainfall example for the July 31, 2001 storm. Gridded rainfall is
input as a separate file.

Input file is:  pueblo-radar-july2001-rainopt3.in


3. An example demonstrating rainopt4. This is the TREX verification
run for the May 1894 storm documented in England (2006) and England
et al. (2007).  Rainfall is distributed in space as an ellipse from
user-input D-A-D table.

Input file is:  pueblo-may1894-rainopt4-dad.in
