Viewing an Aquifer in the Browser

The browser view of an Aquifer pathway is shown below:

The Properties folder contains all the inputs for the Aquifer. The Inflows and Outflows folders contain all of the mass flux links for the Aquifer.

Note: Element inputs and outputs are only shown in the browser if you choose to Show element subitems (accessed via the browser context menu by right-clicking in the browser).

The pathway's mass and concentration outputs are listed first. Note that for an Aquifer, the concentration always refers to that in the Reference Fluid.

The Properties folder contains the basic inputs for the Aquifer. With two exceptions (listed below), you can create a link to any of these property inputs using the Link Cursor.

Note that the Species input and the Reference Fluid input also appear in the Properties folder. The Species input is automatically linked to the nearest Species element when the Aquifer is created. Similarly, the Reference Fluid input is automatically linked to the nearest Reference Fluid element when the Aquifer is created. These links cannot be changed using the Link Cursor, and are displayed for information purposes only.

If the Aquifer has any mass flux links associated with it, the corresponding inputs and outputs for these links are organized into the Inflows, Outflows, and Diffusive Influxes folders. These folders are not shown if they are empty.
