Comment:

 fwiw, I made some manual calculations in order to establish what the
 column 'flow_accum' represents. My hypothesis was that it represented the
 difference between the value of flow accum in the node downstream minus
 the accum in the node upstream. But my hypothesis was not verified,
 although the magnitude is comparable. If someone has better ideas I'm
 ready to test. Thanks
