Runoff fraction

Collected runoff/applied volume.

Uncollected water balance (L)

Applied−runoff; does not distinguish retention, evaporation, leaks or plant uptake.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Applied and collected water volumes. Returns Runoff fraction and uncollected balance. All coefficients and observations are user supplied; results describe only the stated mathematical model. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification. Applied irrigation water (L): minimum 1e-12, maximum 1000000000000.0. Collected runoff water (L): minimum 0, maximum 1000000000000.0.
