DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
--------------------

This dataset contains:

"M46af_1600days PBx0.006 0.04kgd Gas VG-A 0kPa in gravel.xlsx".  This is an Excel spreadsheet of an LDAT (Landfill Degradation and Transport) model output file. Further information on LDAT at https://www.ldatmodel.com/
The spreadsheet contains 10 Tabs:
"LookUp" tab:  Provides definitions of the parameters used in the "LDAT Results" tab
Tabs "Input Data", "Init B'dary" and "Grid" contain model setup information used in the processing and graphical display tabs
"LDAT Results" tab:  Full dataset exported from LDAT.  All other Tabs to right extract this data for processing and graphical display
"Data Extract" tab:  Extracts data from "LDAT results" and undertakes further processing
"Depth plots" tab: Plots of liquid hydraulic parameters versus depth
"Flow plots" tab: Plots of liquid flow to boundary conditions to check for steady state 
"Gas depth plots" tab: Plots of gas pressures and other parameters versus depth
"Gas flow plots" tab: Plots of gas flow to boundary conditions to check for steady state
