Where: SUEWS_AnthropogenicEmission.txt, initial v2019a Code 551
The first public v2019a table row for Code 551 states the complete combined configuration, including qf_a 0.1446/0.1329, qf_b 0/0, qf_c 0.0037/0.0038, metabolic heat 75/175, metabolic CO2 120/280, fossil fractions 0.7/0.7, EF 1.159, vehicle energy 3.97e6 J km-1, vehicle CO2 0.2069, and traffic units 1.
Where: SUEWS_AnthropogenicEmission.txt, v2019a point-source column extension
The later v2019a table revision splits vehicle factors by day type and adds the point-source column, recording CO2PointSource as 0 for Code 551. It also replaces the Swindon-specific vehicle factor with 0.285; Ward et al. (2013) and the initial Code 551 row independently support 0.2069, so this locator is used only for the newly introduced point-source field.
Applies to: parameters.co2.frfossilfuel_heat, parameters.co2.frfossilfuel_nonheat, parameters.co2.ef_umolco2perj, parameters.co2.trafficunits
Where: SUEWS_AnthropogenicEmission.txt, initial v2019a Code 551 configuration fields
These model-configuration leaves have a direct authoritative value in the public input table; no journal article was found that publishes them as one scientific tuple.
Applies to: parameters.co2.co2pointsource
Where: SUEWS_AnthropogenicEmission.txt, v2019a Code 551 point-source flag
The v2019a column extension directly records CO2PointSource as 0 for Code 551.
Applies to: parameters.heat.qf_a.working_day, parameters.heat.qf_a.holiday, parameters.heat.qf_b.working_day, parameters.heat.qf_b.holiday, parameters.heat.qf_c.working_day, parameters.heat.qf_c.holiday
Where: Section 4.3, Equation 5, p. 11, 12
Defines the degree-day anthropogenic heat model and states that the Swindon weekday and weekend coefficients were fitted after removing cooling-degree dependence.
Where: Table 3, Sw weekday and weekend columns, p. 12
Prints qf_a as 0.1446 and 0.1330, qf_b as zero, and qf_c as 0.0037 and 0.0038.
Applies to: parameters.heat.qf_a.working_day, parameters.heat.qf_a.holiday, parameters.heat.qf_b.working_day, parameters.heat.qf_b.holiday, parameters.heat.qf_c.working_day, parameters.heat.qf_c.holiday
Where: SUEWS_AnthropogenicHeat.txt, code 551
Preserves the Swindon fit at greater precision, including weekend qf_a 0.1329150, which explains the four-decimal configuration value 0.1329 rather than the paper's printed 0.1330.
Applies to: parameters.co2.minqfmetab, parameters.co2.maxqfmetab
Where: Section 2.5, Heat released from human metabolism, p. 2745
States a sleeping metabolic rate of 75 W and adopts an average daytime rate of 175 W.
Applies to: parameters.co2.minfcmetab, parameters.co2.maxfcmetab
Where: Appendix A3, Human metabolism, p. 4662
Publishes 120 and 280 umol CO2 s-1 person-1 for nighttime and daytime after adjusting the Moriwaki and Kanda values to the activity periods used for the Swindon calculation.
Applies to: parameters.co2.enef_v_jkm
Where: Section 2.2, Heat from vehicular traffic, Equation 4, p. 2740
Calculates 3975 J per metre of vehicle travel from combustion heat, fuel density and fuel economy, exactly 3,975,000 J km-1.
Applies to: parameters.co2.fcef_v_kgkm.working_day, parameters.co2.fcef_v_kgkm.holiday
Where: Appendix A1, Vehicular emissions, p. 4662
Gives the Swindon vehicle CO2 emission factor as 0.2069 kg km-1 from DECC and applies it without fleet-composition adjustment.
Where: Title and abstract, suburban area in Swindon, p. 4645
The title and abstract explicitly identify the study area as suburban Swindon.
Where: Table 1, land cover within 500 m of the flux mast, p. 4647
Establishes the neighbourhood-scale study footprint rather than city-wide representativeness.
Where: database.xlsx, AnthropogenicEmission row, legacy ID 53240551
Preserves the stable database identity but rounds EF to 1.16 and vehicle CO2 to 0.21. The earlier public input table provides the authoritative precision restored here.
| Name | supported The neutral name identifies the retained Swindon Code 551 combined anthropogenic-emission configuration without claiming that one journal article created every field. |
|---|---|
| Target | supported The release row and publications cover the anthropogenic heat and CO2 fields stored under anthropogenic_emissions. |
| Values | supported The original v2019a Code 551 row plus its point-source column extension match the complete active configuration after restoring EF_umolCO2perJ from 1.16 to 1.159 and both vehicle CO2 factors from 0.21 to 0.2069. Ward et al. (2016) publish the fitted heat coefficients, the 2016a release preserves the weekend coefficient's greater precision, Sailor and Lu (2004) publish the metabolic heat bounds and vehicle-energy calculation, and Ward et al. (2013) publish the Swindon metabolic CO2 bounds and vehicle CO2 factor. |
| Source | supported The canonical record source is the pinned public input table because it is the only source for the complete combined configuration. Canonical parameter overrides identify the direct publications for RefValue-capable scalar leaves, while field-scoped sidecar evidence records the fitted heat and vehicle CO2 provenance that the current export shape cannot attach per day type. issue #377 |
| Place | supported Ward et al. (2013) and Ward et al. (2016) identify the study site as Swindon, and the released Code 551 configuration is the corresponding Swindon row. |
| Representativeness | supported Site matches the suburban study area and the 500 m radius around the flux mast used to characterise it; the evidence is not city-wide. |
| Urban Setting | supported Suburban is explicit in the article title, abstract and study-site description. |
| Method | supported Literature at record level means adoption of the pinned published configuration. The canonical overrides and field-scoped evidence retain the more specific fitted and calculated methods for the individual parameters instead of asserting one shared production method. |
| Identity | supported Public release Code 551 and legacy database row 53240551 identify the same combined Swindon configuration. The release artifact resolves the former question of whether the tuple should be split. |
The former blocker was the record format's single-source envelope, not an absence of public evidence. The canonical record now cites the exact original v2019a combined configuration, while scalar parameter overrides and field-scoped evidence preserve the distinct scientific roles. Ward et al. (2016) are credited for the fitted heat coefficients; Sailor and Lu (2004) for metabolic heat and vehicle energy; Ward et al. (2013) for the Swindon metabolic and vehicle CO2 calculation; and the pinned SUEWS input row for configuration-only fields. No source is made to support values it does not publish. The later v2019a table revision changes the vehicle factor to 0.285 while adding the point-source field; the record retains the Swindon-specific 0.2069 supported by Ward et al. (2013) and the initial Code 551 row, and uses the later revision only for the new flag. The two precision corrections reverse migration rounding rather than invent a new configuration.
