RMA2 permits wetting and drying within the grid either ~hrough elemental <br /> <br />elimination or gradual wetting and drying through the consideration of marsh porosity (King <br /> <br />1997) <br /> <br />L1 <br />U <br /> <br />Modeling low flow conditions over a long reach of river has proven problematic for <br /> <br />~~ <br /> <br />many reasons including the need for a highly refined finite element mesh and a large amount <br /> <br />of computing power.

If the <br /> <br />elements are large, the change in velocities in the remaining areas can be large enough to <br /> <br />cause the solution to diverge and the model to crash.
