To check these Manning's 'n' assumptions, a sensitivity testing was completed on the in-bank roughness and is detailed further in the following sections.

==Levee Overtopping Assessment==
To assess the timing and location of where levee banks were overtopped, the TGC was setup with the evacuation route command:<br> <font color="blue"><tt>Read GIS Z Shape Route </tt></font> <font color="red"><tt>==</tt></font> shp\2d_zshr_T3_levees_001_L.shp | shp\2d_zsh_T3_levees_001_P.shp.<br>
Via review of the RC Map Output Data Type and the _RCP output point layer we can identify sections of the levee where a breach has occured (refer below).<br>

==Sensitivity Creek Manning's n Test (Scenario 100ft n0.1)==
As discussed in the Manning’s n table above, the main creek n value of 0.20 is considered very high, especially in the lower reaches of the study area. A sensitivity analysis was carried out by lowering all the Manning’s n values in the main channel (
The image below shows the flood depths and extent for the two non-infiltration simulations at 100ft resolution (left with channel 'n' = 0.2, right with channel 'n' = 0.1). Some significant deviations in flood extent can be observed,

=Conclusion=
Line 144 ⟶ 150:
In this challenge, we explored typical non-urban stream of the California Central Valley, with scenarios of various infiltration and flood levees adopted. From this, we gained a better understanding of the influence of flood levees on surface water behaviour, understanding of the Green Ampt infiltration method and USDR soil types, and a better understanding of nested 1D/2D models.
Congratulations on finishing
