Net wet deposition diagnostics — wet deposition flux, washout ratio, and wet deposition velocity — for a trace species removed from the atmosphere by falling rain, from Seinfeld & Pandis (2006), Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2nd ed., Chapter 20 (Wet Deposition), Eqs. 20.6-20.9. Given the species concentration in ground-level rainwater (C_rain), its gas-phase concentration in air (C_air), and the precipitation rate (p₀), the component evaluates three quantities: the wet deposition flux F_w = C_rain·p₀ (Eq. 20.7) — the downward species mass flux carried to the surface by rain; the dimensionless washout ratio w_r = C_rain/C_air (Eq. 20.6) — a measure of how strongly the species partitions into rainwater; and the wet deposition velocity u_w = F_w/C_air (Eq. 20.8), equivalently w_r·p₀ (Eq. 20.9) — the flux normalized by the air-phase concentration. Migrated from AtmosphericDeposition.jl@e4468c79 src/seinfeld_pandis_2006_ch20.jl:451 (`WetDepositionFlux` @component). Flat observed-only algebraic model: C_rain, C_air and p₀ are the input parameters and F_w, w_r, u_w are the algebraic outputs, each fixed by one equation with no time derivative. The upstream @component is a single flat System with no subsystems; the migration-tracker `coupling.couple` feature tag and `depends_on: ParticleScavengingCoeff, GasScavengingCoeff` describe a conceptual relationship that the source code does not implement, so this is migrated as a standalone flat model.
