Dynamic sed and configure in the organic matter file

Question

Hi Chris.

I try to run a model with the method of dynamic sediment. I have configured all that they needs, in the run_qw, as well and in the nitrogen file, phosphorus file, carbon file, oxygen file, metal files (iron), exept the organic matter file, because i dont know where must i add the "0.01 delta_sed_sedflux_k " in this file, as well how must be written correctly this parameter (in this file: organic matter) to run the model.  The user manual does not refer anything about this, in the  organic matter file.

In the debug file is written:

***** FATAL ERROR **** FATAL ERROR **** FATAL ERROR *****

 * in module    

 * in subroutine

 * Function parameter labile_sed_decomposition_coefficient  missing

 * File wq_files/organic_matter.dat

 *********************************************************

I would like to help me with this.

Hi Evangelos,

The order of parameters in all the new wq files is not important.

The new dynamic sed model is still being tested, so treat the results with caution.  An example organic matter file is
