Nutrient Modeling (Total N, Total P)

Question

Hello,

When I am running the AEM3D water quality modeling. My total N goes from 200 to 4000 mg/L within 1 day. I have tried changing the nitrogen parameters to see if it affects the results, but it does not.

I am still testing out the basics, so I do not have any flow inputs.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks!

Figured it out. I think it was because my meteorological data started on 2023-01-01 0:50 AM, but my model started on 2023-01-01 0:00 AM. It runs better now.
