Hello community, This is a simple question. For the SWYM output aggregated_results, what is “qb” and what unit does it have?

Sorry @felipebenra , that seems to be missing from the User Guide - we’ll add it. Qb is baseflow, it has units of millimeters/year, but it’s not really meant to be interpreted as an absolute value. ~ Stacie

Looks like this was addressed here :slight_smile:

Hi, swolny

Thanks,
