    Hello, I am running very large model for a river system in an urban area. I am modelling the effects of a relatively small amount of fill in the floodplain. When run, this causes 0.00′ of rise in WSEL. However, when I add an excavation of about the same size, and decrease the n-value (both of which normally reduce WSEL), I get a WSEL increase of 0.01′! Any idea why this happens and how to remedy it?
    Thanks!

    Upload screen shots. Is this 2D?1D? Unsteady? Steady?

    This happens all the time when you open up the channel. The velocities most likely reduced which causes the wse to increase.
