<P>I wonder if the turbidity (word ??) of the water will actually not make a difference. Any harbor will have boats, wind effects, and an occasional sea monster disturbing the "glass" water.</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Hello everyone,</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I’ve got a building that is located at the edge of a harbor with the water directly to the south of it. How do I model a reflective surface on the ground that represents the harbor? I feel this is key to include, as this reflectivity will send additional heat through the windows. I looked through the archives but didn’t see anything related to ground reflectivity.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>If anyone knows how to create reflective objects and/or an appropriate value of reflectivity for water in eQUEST, that would be most helpful.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Thanks in advance!</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Regards,</P>
