Introduction of the occurrence of high groundwater levels and surface water storage in computer program SWATRE

In the previous version of the computer program SWATRE calculations of the soil motsture distrihution and the waterbalsnee stoppad when the water table was rising close to the soil surface. This restrietion was caused by the way of computation of the height of the groundwater level. In practice, situalfons may occur in which the groundwater table is rlsing up to or even beyond the soil surface. This paper presents an extension of SWATRE, which is capable to deal with this type of situation, including the ponding phenomenum.
