Pond with sloping base

Pond with sloping base

Pond with sloping base

(OP)
Hi group,

I'm trying to model an open channel as a pond structure, since I would like to account for exfiltration via an under drain along the swale, and a raised outlet structure at the discharge point of the channel.  I notice that it is possible to model a horizontal cylinder with a sloped base, however, I'm not sure how to account for the slope of the channel (3%) using the Prismatoid Storage definition.  Any suggestions?

RE: Pond with sloping base

I would probably use custom stage-storage and provide input at intervals small enough to describe the storage.
