Parameter Variable and Physical Definition
Layer Thickness: The thickness of the upper material of a surface. thick is effective when a user desires to adjust the thermal inertias of two materials while keeping the thickness of the upper material constant. For example, a thin layer of dust on top of bedrock.
- When thick is used as an input parameter, evalN1_krc() is called automatically, and calculates several parameters to create model stability for a material with this thickness.
- Therefore, manually adjusting the following parameters, which are used in evalN1_krc(), may result in a non-stable model:

- Same as Physical Definition
- Values:
- Input = Real Value Parameter
- Units: Meters
- Range = 0 or greater
- Default Value = 0 (i.e. no layering)
- Input Parameter Name:
