EFDC_Explorer
7.3 now implements a robust ice sub
-
model. Previously EFDC 
had 
relatively 
limited ice modeling ability. 
In EE7.
2
and earlier t
he ice conditions had to be fully specified 
by the user for every cell for the model simulation perio
d. The creation of the input 
files was 
also external to EE. Now ice 
formation
and melt is simulated by EFDC using a coupled heat 
model and fully handled by EFDC_Explorer.
