The Compute Area Between Elevations command is useful for determining areas in different elevation zones as part of a snow melt analysis. This operation can also be done when defining snow melt parameters for HEC-1. Model units are assumed to be either in feet or meters and subsequent areas are converted to square miles or square kilometers according to the metric flag set in the HEC-1 Job Control dialog.

This same procedure is also useful for determining storage capacity curves.
