Subsidence is currently composed of 2 forms of reduction of peat: oxidation and subsidence. These forms of subsidence are both relevant for the complete picture of subsidence, but are, in principle, calculated via separate formulas. The results of these formulas are added together to get the total amount of subsidence.


===Oxidation===
* The initial [[Ground_watertable_result_type_(Water_Overlay)|Groundwater level]] calculated by the [[Groundwater Overlay]]
Peat, when exposed to oxygen, can oxidize. In this process the peat combines with the air to form CO2, reducing the total mass and volume of the peat. The amount of oxidation depends on the clay thickness, because clay may insulate the peat, preventing it from oxidizing. It also depends on the (lowest) ground water level in relation to the surface of the land.

Subsidence is calculated in 1-year steps. For each year, the amount of subsidence is calculated. That amount is then used to recalculate the input parameters for the overlay. The next 1-year step is then calculated.

The subsidence overlay
The ground water overlay

The Subsidence Overlay is an overlay that shows which places in the project area are subject to subsidence due to oxidation and/or compaction of peat. The calculation results can provide insight into the subsidence taking place, and the effects it has on groundwater levels.

The Subsidence Overlay can be used to calculate the amount of subsidence which takes place on peat soil, specifically due to peat oxidation and compaction. The calculations are specific for peat soil. Separate formulas for other soil types have not yet been implemented. Although it's possible to use the overlay to give an impression of subsidence resulting from other factors, the results will be less accurate. This means that results have a greater margin of error for different use-cases.

It is possible to add multiple subsidence overlays to a project. By varying their configuration slightly, it is possible to calculate multiple scenario's or time-frames simultaneously.

A project can be enriched with other overlays that are interesting in combination with the Subsidence Overlay. Examples are:
