USGS directions in MODFLOW development.
Introduction The development and application of ground-water models has been an important component of USGS hydrologic investigations since the early 1970s. During the past 35 years, the USGS has developed a wide range of computer models to simulate saturated and unsaturated subsurface flow, solute transport, and chemical reactions. The most widely used of these programs is the MODFLOW model, w...

Short wavelength ultraviolet light has long been recognized as being responsible for most of this damage2. Spectroradiometric measurements were made to quantify the wide variations in UV content of sunlight under the following conditions: direct summer sunlight, winter sunlight, sunlight filtere...

Yet, empirical evidence indicates that also the “needs” of the mem...
