Abstract. In the context of changing climate and increasing water demand, large-scale hydrological models are helpful for understanding projecting future resources across scales. Groundwater is a critical freshwater resource strongly controls river flow throughout year. It also essential ecosystems contributes to evapotranspiration, resulting in feedback. However, groundwater systems worldwide ...

This paper presents some simulation–optimization models for groundwater resources management. These models couple two of the most successful global optimization techniques inspired by swarm intelligence, namely particle swarm optimization (PSO) and ant colony optimization (ACO), with one of the most commonly used groundwater flow simulation code, MODFLOW. The coupled simulation–optimization mod...
