Methods to Prescribe Soil MoistureΒΆ

pSMtype = 1
Prescribe SOILLIQ and SOILICE at every time step (PRES_LIQ+ICE). Ignores gridcells/ levels where SOILLIQ or SOILICE is negative.
pSMtype = 2
Prescribe SOILLIQ if soil temperature is above freezing (PRES_LIQ). Prescribes SOILLIQ + SOILICE at every time step. Ignores gridcells/ levels where SOILLIQ is negative.
pSMtype = 3
Not tested, do not use. Prescribe SOILLIQ if soil temperature is above freezing (PRES_LIQ) and only if runoff (or potentially water in the reservoir is available). Does not remove water. Prescribes SOILLIQ + SOILICE at every time step.
pSMtype = 4
As pSMtype = 2 but does not remove water.
