 ====Separation into glacier types==== ====Separation into glacier types====
  
-Separation of glaciers into different types can be done in GlacierData.txt. There each glacier can be given the wanted glacier type (column ''​glactype''​). The glaciers can alternatively be separated into two types based on their class’ area and a parameter (par.txt; ''​glac2arlim''​). Small glaciers are given glactype=0, and large glaciers are given glactype=1. The parameter ''​glac2arlim''​ defines the separating area (in //​m<​sup>​2</​sup>//​). Glaciers of glactype=0 uses the default parameter values for initializing of the glacier volume, while the other uses an alternative set of parameter values. Glaciers of type 0 and 1 have a time varying glacier area, while glaciers of type 2 and 3 have a constant glacier area (equal to the slc area).+Separation of glaciers into different types can be done in [[:​start:​HYPE_file_reference:​GlacierData.txt|GlacierData.txt]].

 The alternative initializations coefficients are used for glaciers of other types (glactype>​=1). Glaciers of the default type (glactype=0) is initialized as described above, while the other glaciers are initialized with different parameter values. The default values of the alternative coefficients are //coef// = 1.701 and //exp// = 1.25. The alternative initializations coefficients are used for glaciers of other types (glactype>​=1).

-Another option to initialize the glaciers is to set the glacier volume (//​m<​sup>​3</​sup>//​) for each glacier in GlacierData.txt directly (column ''​slcvolume''​).

-All of the above methods to initialize the glacier volume can additionally be manipulated using glacier specific data (in GlacerData.txt) on when the initial glacier volume, calculated by slc defined glacier area or set by slcvolume, is valid.

In this case, the average annual change in mass balance (//annmb// in mm/yr) is given as input data (GlacierData.txt;​ ''​annualmb''​) or as a general parameter (par.txt; ''​glacannmb''​).
