-<dt><b>accumulation</b>

-<b>accumulation</b> map are used and not calculated from the input
-<b>elevation</b> map. If <b>accumulation</b> is given,
-<b>elevation</b> must be exactly the same map used to calculate
-<b>accumulation</b>. If <b>accumulation</b> was calculated with
-<em><a href="r.terraflow.html">r.terraflow</a></em>, the filled elevation output
-of r.terraflow must be used. Further on, the current region should be 
-aligned to the <b>accumulation</b> map. Flow direction is
-first calculated from <b>elevation</b> and then adjusted to
-<b>accumulation</b>. It is not necessary to provide <b>accumulation</b>
-as the number of cells, it can also be the optionally adjusted or
-weighed total contributing area in square meters or any other unit. 
-When an original flow accumulation map is adjusted or weighed, the 
-adjustment or weighing should not convert valid accumulation values to 
-NULL (nodata) values.

-<dt><b>depression</b> 
-<dd>Input map, optional: All non-NULL and non-zero cells will be regarded
-as real depressions. Streams will not be routed out of depressions. If an
-area is marked as depression but the elevation model has no depression
-at this location, streams will not stop there. If a flow accumulation map
-and a map with real depressions are provided, the flow accumulation map
-must match the depression map such that flow is not distributed out of

-flow accumulation if a depression map is provided.
