Ng_parm(Kx = 0.02, GRAD = 7e-04, POR = 0.21, K_units = "cm/s",
  TEMP = 25, DIA_SUSP = 1e-04, DIA_SOIL = 0.053, PART_DENS = 2.64)

Arguments

Kx

Defaults to a value of 0.02 cm/s

GRAD

Defaults to a value of 0.0007

POR

Defaults to a value of 0.21. The value of 0.21 is the average for medium sand as reported by Johnson (1967)

K_units

Units of hydraulic conductivity. Defaults to cm/s but also accepts ft/day. Units should be surrounded by quotation marks to ensure it is treated as a string of text.

TEMP

Temperature in units of °C. Defaults to a value of 25°C

DIA_SUSP

Diameter of the suspended solids in units of cm

DIA_SOIL

Diameter of the soil particles in units of cm

PART_DENS

Density of the suspended particle in units of g/cm³
