Water entering the system (river headflows, surface water inflows to reaches, groundwater recharge, local reservoir inflows, other local supply inflows, catchment precipitation).
Water leaving the system (consumption at demand sites, catchment evapotranspiration (ET Actual), evaporation on river reaches and reservoirs, losses in transmission and return flow links, groundwater and local reservoir overflow, losses in wastewater treatment, and outflows from the end of rivers and diversions that do not flow into other rivers or groundwater nodes).
Note: Inflows to area may not equal total outflows from area due to changes in storage in reservoirs and groundwater.
Streamflow: The streamflow at selected nodes and reaches along a river. You can plot a line for each point on the river over time (choose Year for the X Axis), or a line for each month plotted along the river (choose River Nodes and Reaches for the X Axis).
Streamflow Relative to Gauge (absolute): The absolute difference between streamflow gauge data (observed streamflow) and the simulated streamflow at the node immediately above the gauge (simulated minus observed).
Streamflow Relative to Gauge (%): The relative difference between streamflow gauge data (observed streamflow) and the simulated streamflow at the node immediately above the gauge (simulated divided by observed, where 100% means the simulated value is the same as the observation).
Stage: The depth of water at selected nodes and reaches along a river.
Velocity: The velocity of water flow at selected nodes and reaches along a river.
Reach Length: The length of the reach.
Storage: The aquifer storage levels at the end of each month.
Inflows and Outflows: A mass balance of all water entering and leaving a specified aquifer. Inflows (from recharge, inflow from river reaches, and return flows from demand sites and wastewater treatment plants) are represented as positive amounts, outflows (withdrawals by demand sites and outflows to river reaches) as negative amounts.
Overflow: Groundwater overflow occurs when the aquifer storage is at its maximum, and there is net inflow. Any overflow is lost from the system.
Height Above River: The difference in elevation between the water table and the wetted depth of the river, based on the reference groundwater elevation equal to the wetted depth that is specified when setting up the groundwater-surface water interactions.
Outflow to River: The volume of groundwater flowing to a river through the streambed.

Storage Volume and Zones: Reservoir storage compared to the operating zones (Top of Conservation, Top of Buffer, Top of Inactive), for a single reservoir.
Storage Volume: The reservoir storage volume at the end of each month.
Storage Elevation: The elevation of the reservoir level at the end of each month.
Inflows and Outflows: All water entering and leaving a specified reservoir. Inflows (either from upstream (river reservoirs) or monthly inflow (local reservoirs) or return flows from demand sites and wastewater treatment plants) are represented as positive amounts, outflows (to downstream, evaporation, local reservoir overflow, or withdrawals by demand sites) as negative amounts. For local reservoirs, evaporation and overflow are lumped together.
Evaporation: The volume of net evaporation for each month.
Refills: For each reservoir, a value of 0 means that the reservoir did NOT refill completely after its lowest point; a value of 1 means that it did refill. Some algorithms for determining reservoir safe yield mandate that the reservoir must refill completely after its lowest point in order to be considered a safe yield.
Hydropower Generation: The power generated by reservoirs and hydropower nodes.
Hydropower Turbine Flow: Actual flow through turbines. (Any flow exceeding the maximum turbine flow will bypass the turbines.)
Hydropower Demand (Energy): The energy demand specified (as data) for each reservoir and run of river hydropower node.
Hydropower Demand (Flow): The equivalent flow required to produce the hydropower energy demand.
Hydropower Unmet Demand: How much of the hydropower energy demand that was not met.
Hydropower Coverage: The percentage of the hydropower energy demand that was met.
Hydropower Reliability: The percent of the timesteps in which a reservoir's hydropower energy demand was fully satisfied. For example, if a reservoir has unmet hydropower energy demands in 18 months out of a 10-year scenario, the reliability would be (10 * 12 - 18) / (10 * 12) = 85%.
System Hydropower Generation: The total power generated by all reservoirs and hydropower nodes which are contributing to the system hydropower demand.
System Hydropower Demand: The power generated by reservoirs and hydropower nodes.
System Hydropower Unmet Demand: The energy demand specified (as data) for the system as a whole.
Note: Reports related to hydropower demand will only be available if hydropower demand data has been entered.
Flow: The flow through each transmission link.
Inflows and Outflows: Includes amounts lost to evaporation and leakage.
Inflows and Outflows: A mass balance of all water entering and leaving a specified other supply source. Inflows are represented as positive amounts, outflows as negative amounts.
Flow: The flow through each return link.
Inflows and Outflows: Includes amounts lost to evaporation and leakage.
