Line 19: [[File:New Project.png\|800px]]<br> <br> Use the '''‘Import from file’''' option to import the XML files. Importing the XML file will populate the parameters. The XML data ~~is available~~ is available in catchment data or point data format. When using the point data format, these do not have an area associated with them. Therefore, the user will need to specify the area of the plot that you are interested in (if required this can also be edited later). <br> <br> [[File:Point_Descriptors.png\|400px]]<br> <br> Once an area value has been provided ~~then~~, it is possible to generate the rainfall hyetographs and runoff hydrographs and apply to TUFLOW in the same manner as for catchment descriptors. The user will then choose which country the data corresponds to. The ReFH2 programme included the development of Scotland specific algorithms to estimate the model parameters from the catchment descriptors~~. The choice of Scotland will mean that the alpha correction factor is not applied~~.<br> <br> [[File:Catchment_Descriptors.png\|400px]]<br> <br> Once the parameters have been imported, and the country specified, apply the parameters and choose to move to the next page. On the next page the user can choose which rainfall model to use, FEH1999 or FEH2013. Note that CEH recommend use of the improved FEH2013 model. It’s possible to specify the design rainfall return periods of interest and ReFH2 will automatically calculate the recommended duration and suggest an appropriate timestep that meets the requirement that the duration must be an odd multiple of the time step. The recommended duration should normally be used, although both values can be edited directly to provide the duration that is required. The XML file from the ~~FEH2013~~FEH Web ~~website~~Service contains the rainfall depths for a number of pre-defined return period/duration combinations. For those return period/duration combinations that are not pre-defined, ReFH2 undertakes a two-way interpolation process. ReFH2 will then generate the design rainfall hyetograph based on the rainfall depth and the FSR/FEH approach.<br> <br> [[File:FEH_2013_Design_Rainfall.png\|400px]]<br> <br> On the right hand side of the above image, you can see the calculated Areal Reduction Factor and Seasonal Correction Factors which will be applied to the rainfall depth. The rainfall profile can vary depending on the season selected (summer or winter) and the seasonal correction factor and areal reduction factor are both applied to the rainfall hyetograph to obtain the correct design rainfall hyetograph. Once the ~~Return~~return periods and durations have been defined then click next. This brings up the various parameters together with the rainfall hyetographs and runoff hydrographs for the various return periods. The rainfall hyetographs and runoff are available as rural and urbanised scenarios.<br> <br> [[File:ReFH2_Results.png\|400px]]<br>
