==Use of Scenarios to Modify 2d2D Grid Resolution==
To test the effect of different resolutions, simulations were made using grid resolutions of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 40 ft (Noted that only the 10 and 15ft are presented in this example).
 
To run the model with varying cell sizes from a single TCF, the use of scenarios waswere implemented with either '10ft' or '15ft' entered in the batch file using the -s commandswitch. Importantly, if the -s switch is not used, the model will assume a default model scenario of 10ft as specified by the line <font color="blue"><tt>Model Scenario </tt></font> <font color="red"><tt>==</tt></font> <tt> 10ft </tt> within the TCF.
 
Within this example, the 2D timestep and log output frequency are variables dependent on the 2D Cell Size scenario. The variables are specified through an external read file (.trf). The .tfrtrf file is called from the TCF: <font color="blue"><tt>Read File </tt></font> <font color="red"><tt>==</tt></font> <tt> FMA_T1_CellSize_Commands_001.trd </tt><br>
 
When the model is initialised, the scenario determines the 2D_CELL_SIZE, 2D_Timestep and LogInt variables. The variables are set using the 'Set Variable' command in the trf.
