	DMSTA User Manual:
	Input File Structure:
		Input data for a given treatment area are contained in a separate excel workbook (e.g., "sta2_data.xls").
		The file contains daily time series ("InputSeries" sheet) and up to 50 sets of input parameters defining alternative designs.
		Each set of input parameters is stored in a separate worksheet.  The sheet name is used to identify the design case.
		The case worksheet also contains a summary of results from previous model runs.
		The design case name corresponds to the entry in cell D4 on the DMSTA parameters sheet.
		The sheet formats must be identical to those in the sample input file (sta2_data.xls) and the DMSTA parameters sheet.
		Input files can be created using the procedures outlined below.
		They can also be created by editing the sample input workbook (sta2_data.xls) & saving the file with a different name.
		When a new input file is retrieved from the DMSTA menu:
			The inflow time series is copied to the DMSTA "input series" sheet.
			An index of design cases contained in the input file is presented on the DMSTA menu.
			A summary of results for all cases in the input file is copied to the DMSTA cases sheet.
	Sample Input Files Provided with Software:
		File	Description
		sta2_data.xls	Sample Design Cases for STA-2
		sta2_sensit.xls	Sensitivity Analyses for STA-2
	To retrieve an existing design case from an existing input file:
		Enter input file name in cell C4  (e.g."sta2_data.xls"); this file must be stored in same directory as DMSTA.XLS
		Click "Retrieve Inflow Series" to retrieve inflow time series data & a  list of design cases from the selected file.
		Select a design case from the menu
		Click "Retrieve Case"
	To add a new design case to an existing file:
		Load an existing design case (instructions listed above)
		Click "Edit Input Parameters" to reflect new design case
		Enter new case name in cell D4 of parameters sheet
		Click "Run Model"
		Click "Save Case" on Menu Sheet
	To create a new case & input file:
		Enter file name to store input times series & design cases in Cell C4 of "Menu" sheet (replace "sta2.data.xls")
		Enter or paste input time series into "InputSeries" sheet of DMSTA.XLS
		Edit input parameter values on "Parameters" sheet
		Specify up to 6 treatment cells in series and/or parallel.  The cells must be in downstream order.
		Specify vegetation type for each cell in row 19; refer to parameter sets in "Calibrations" sheet or use selection tool
		Specify a vegetation type of "none" to enter input parameters directly in rows 42-50
		Enter design case label in Cell D4
		Click "Run Model"
		Return to Menu sheet
		Click "Save Case".  This saves the input time series & design case in the specified file.
		You can retrieve the input case data later by clicking "Retrieve Case"
		Click "Save Outputs" to save copy of input & output tables in a separate file.
	Note:
		Do not delete rows or columns from any worksheet in DMSTA.XLS
		To remove cell entries, select range & use "Edit Clearcontents" (from excel menu) or the "Del" key
	DMSTA is a modeling tool with a constrained range of applicability. It has been developed and calibrated to information specific to South Florida. It is intended for use in evaluating Everglades Protection Projects.  It is intended for use by individuals with experience in hydrologic & water quality modeling.  It should not be exercised in any situation without careful examination of all features, assumptions and calibrations, as they relate to a given application and to the supporting research upon which the calibrations are based.  The user assumes all risks associated with using the model for engineering design or other purposes.

	Notes on April 17, 2002 Release:
	Added sensitivity analysis & uncertainty analysis routines.  Click "Sensitivity Analysis" button on menu.
	Preliminary estimates of model & parameter standard errors are built into the calibrated parameter sets.
	P cycling parameter "Ks" replaced by "K" = net settling rate at steady state in K/C* model;
	This parameter change is transparent to user when the default calibration sets are used.
	Added parameter set  "SAV_C4" :  Caibrated to ENRP Cell 4, 1998-1999  (IGNORES DATA FROM OTHER SAV PLATFORMS !)
	At this point, the "NEWS" calibration is recommended for submergents because it performs better over a range of platforms.
	Attempts to reconcile differences between SAV/NEWS  & SAV_C4 calibration are underway.
	Input files from older versions should work, but each case will have to update the "Case" sheet.
