Maybe you already knew:

on WASY website there's a movie about setting ET dependent on depth to
groundwater.
You don't need to use the unsaturated module.

I haven't tried it yet, so I can't give you any suggest.

Hi Gio

Thanks for the response.

There are several options in FEFLOW to provide a flux of water from
the water table. However to represent evapotranspiration in an
appropriate manner we need to make the magnitude of the flux
inversely dependent on water table depth ie the flux decreases as
water table gets deeper.
