=== Max Ponding Depth ===
The max ponding depth value is an optional value that can be used, if desired, to set a limit for the depth of ponded water (h<sub>0</sub>) value used in the Green-Ampt equation. InstancesThe whereminimum thisof maythe bewater usefuldepth and the max ponding depth value is ifused as the h<sub>0</sub> value. The default max ponding depth value is 0, to be consistent with the basic form of the Green-Ampt equation, as hydrology models do largenot pondednecessarily depthshave area causingdepth unrealisticcalculated infiltrationat ratescells.
 
This means, if using a max ponding depth, infiltration rates will increase.
