Concerning the First Depletion Year in the Years tab of Settings, what is it meaning and how does it affect the simulation. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Liya

Here is the text from the built-in Help File:
Set First Depletion Year to indicate the firstyear in which resource reserves are depleted by the primary consumption of fuels calculated in LEAP. Normally this should be set to be the same as the base year. However, if your consumption data includes past years of historical data (e.g. 1970-2006), but your reserves data is for some more recent year(e.g. 2005) you should set this to a more recent year.

Thanks Charles. Concerning the reserves, is it set in the resources branch? The picture is as follows.
