The Storage (STO) Package dialog

The Storage (STO) Package dialog is accessed by double-clicking on the STO package under a MODFLOW 6 simulation in the Project Explorer. It contains the following sections and options:

  • Sections list – A list of sections that can be turned on or off:
    • COMMENTS – Turn on to make the COMMENTS section visible.
    • OPTIONS – Turn on to make the OPTIONS section visible.
    • GRIDDATA – Turn on to make the GRIDDATA section visible. This section is on by default.
  • COMMENTS section – Enter general alphanumeric comments. Comments entered here get written at the top of the file, preceded by a '#' symbol.
  • OPTIONS section – Contains the following:
    • SAVE_FLOWS – Save flows to budget file. Turn on to write cell-by-cell flow terms to the file specified with "BUDGET SAVE FILE" in Output Control.
    • STORAGECOEFFICIENT – Indicates that the SS array is read as storage coefficient and not as specific storage.
  • GRIDDATA section – Contains a number of tabs, including:
    • ICONVERT – Helps specify whether or not a cell is convertible for the storage calculation.
    • SS – Represents specific storage.
    • SY – Represents the specific field.
      • Layered – Turn on if there is more than one affected layer. Select the desired layer from the drop-down in order to edit the array (if "ARRAY" is selected from the drop-down).
      • Drop-down and Constant/Factor – The drop-down in the GRIDDATA section has two options. The option selected will change the nature of the textbox to its right.
      • If "CONSTANT" is selected from the drop-down, enter a decimal value in the Constant field to be applied to all cells in the layer(s).
      • If "ARRAY" is selected from the drop-down, a user-editable array appears in the table below the drop-down. Enter an integer Factor value to the right of the drop-down. The individual elements of the array are multiplied by the factor value after they are read.
      • Table – Can allow for the manual input of values for the STO Package if "ARRAY" is selected from the drop-down. Otherwise, it is grayed out.
      • Dataset to Array... – Click to open the Select Dataset dialog. Select the desired database(s) in this dialog.
