The user has the option to pick a particular direct runoff (aka surface partitioning) method:

1. Schaake function (configuration: `surface_partitioning_scheme=Schaake`)
2. Xinanjiang function (configuration: `surface_partitioning_scheme=Xinanjiang`). When using this runoff method the user must also include three parameters.
2. Xinanjiang function (configuration: `surface_partitioning_scheme=Xinanjiang`). When using this runoff method the user must also include four parameters.

If the **Xinanjiang** scheme is choosen, three parameters need to be included in the configuration file:
If the **Xinanjiang** scheme is choosen, four parameters need to be included in the configuration file:

3. x_Xinanjiang_shape_parameter
4. urban_decimal_fraction

## Rootzone-based Actual Evapotranspiration (AET)
The user has the option to turn ON and OFF rootzone-based AET, default option is OFF. To turn it ON, the following parameters need to be included in the configuration file.
