Open water evaporation

Open water evaporation is determined in reservoirs and lakes, only when the reservoir and/or lake module is used. A nominal map should be provided with the extent per open water body. Besides, a map should be provided with the fraction per cell occupied by open water. These maps are used to partly switch of the soil-water processes in the corresponding cells, depending on the fraction of the cell occupied by open water.
