The Time Series Output tab displays simulation results for the locations for time series output and parameters chosen on the Setup tab. Click on a location and then one or two parameters to display the simulation results. Simulation results for the top parameter chosen are shown in a blue line with measured data in blue circles. If a second parameter is chosen, it is plotted with a black line and black circles using the y-axis on the right side of the graph for a scale.
The time series can be presented as a concentration or in-stream load by clicking on the Concentration or Load selectors. Load is calculated by multiplying flow by concentration and converting units. Flow is plotted in flow units regardless of whether Concentration or Load is selected. If Assimilative Capacity is checked, a dashed line is plotted (magenta for the first parameter, red for the second) which shows the maximum concentration or load permissible to meet the water quality criteria at the selected location. The water quality criteria must be set in the Consensus Module. Click the Export button to save the time series output to a text file.
