Modeling Groundwater Flow around the Bibi River in Hokkaido Using Groundwater Temperature.

Modeling groundwater with ocean and river interaction

We develop and implement the groundwater model, Saturated/Unsaturated Flow and Transport in 3D (SUFT3D), to integrate water quantity/quality data and simulations with models of other hydrologic cycle components, namely, rivers and the ocean. This work was done as part of the Sea Air Land Modeling Operational Network (SALMON) project supported by the IBM International Foundation through its Envi...

The groundwater modeling tool for GRASS (GMTG): Open source groundwater flow modeling

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are used to store, manipulate and visualize both spatial and non-spatial data. Because of their data manipulating capabilities, GIS have been linked to different simulation models in different research areas and are commonly used for both surface and ground water modeling. Unfortunately this has been done mainly with proprietary GIS which are expensive and w...

Transient groundwater modeling using spreadsheets

This study proposes a transient groundwater modeling using spreadsheet simulation (TGMSS) model for solving groundwater problems. TGMSS may be considered as a practical method and introduction to groundwater modeling that uses spreadsheets instead of conventional groundwater model codes. Irregular aquifer geometry, variable boundary conditions and sinks and/or source values, heterogeneous aquif...

Integration of Groundwater Flow Modeling and GIS

Assessing controls on diffuse groundwater recharge using unsaturated flow modeling

[1] Understanding climate, vegetation, and soil controls on recharge is essential for estimating potential impacts of climate variability and land use/land cover change on recharge. Recharge controls were evaluated by simulating drainage in 5-m-thick profiles using a one-dimensional (1-D) unsaturated flow code (UNSAT-H), climate data, and vegetation and soil coverages from online sources. Soil ...
