The updated source code is called herein SEAWAT-2000WMD. The Resource Evaluation and Subregional Modeling Division(RESM) has been using various source codes of MODFLOW and SEAWAT for modeling projects of its own, but so far there is no single source code capable of covering all the required functionality entirely. Thus, the updated code will increase the current capabilities of the modeling software used by the RESM Division by allowing just one program to handle all the tasks that previously were performed by different source codes. RESM applies models using both SEAWAT-2000 and MODFLOW-96 (Harbaugh and McDonald, 1996). A problem arises from the fact that these codes do not include many of the custom packages that RESM applies (e.g., Wetland, Diversion, and GEN packages). The Division would like to combine the hydrologic functionality of the custom packages with density-dependent software in order to properly maintain one source code version. Constant density models have been developed in MODFLOW-96 while the newer codes, such as SEAWAT-2000 (which is built around the more recent MODFLOW-2000 (Harbaugh et al., 2000)), offer both constant and variable density applications with solute transport capabilities. Improving the source code will keep modeling applications current with the needs of the DISTRICT. The Diversion and Wetland packages will be generalized to closely represent the process for the physical system under south Florida conditions (e.g., time- dependent operational rules in the Diversion, solving the diffusion equation using the Wetland package for surface water in any cell presenting flooding conditions). SEAWAT-2000 (Langevin et al., 2003) is a combined version of MODFLOW (Harbaugh et al., 2000) and MT3DMS (Zheng and Wang, 1999; Zheng, 2006) designed to simulate three-dimensional, variable-density ground-water flow and multi-species transport. The Variable-Density Flow (VDF) Process in SEAWAT was based on the constant-density Ground-Water Flow (GWF) Process of MODFLOW. The VDF Process uses the MODFLOW and MT3DMS methodologies to solve the variable-density ground- water flow and the solute transport equations, respectively. The MT3DMS part of SEAWAT is referred to as the Integrated MT3DMS Transport (IMT) Process. 11 MODFLOW/SEAWAT 2000WMD Report Background material is available in the published user guides for SEAWAT, SEAWAT- 2000, MODFLOW-2000, and MT3DMS. The version of SEAWAT used herein (Langevin et al., 2007) is capable of simulating simultaneous solute and heat transport and the effect of fluid viscosity on resistance to ground-water flow. SEAWAT simulates heat transport using the intrinsic capabilities of MT3DMS. With this approach, the effect of temperature is calculated as one of the species being computed by MT3DMS. Other features have also been implemented by the USGS to this version of SEAWAT to improve overall functionality. The new main features are: • An option to update the flow field if fluid densities have changed under a user-specified value. This option may substantially reduce runtimes for some simulations where a new flow solution is not needed for each transport time-step. • Auxiliary variables can now be used with the Time-Variant Constant-Head (CHD) package to designate the reference density associated with the prescribed head. This option allows for more control of boundary heads specified with the CHD package (e.g., sea water). The performance of the updated code program for SEAWAT-2000WMD has been tested in several applications including the Lower East Coast Subregional Model and Lower West Coast Floridan Aquifer Model. Future applications, however, might reveal errors that were not detected in the test simulations. Users are requested to notify FAU of any errors found in the computer program. For convenience, the AMG solver code (Wilson and Naff, 2004) is distributed with SEAWAT-2000. The AMG solver is, however, produced by Institute for Algorithms and Scientific Computing (SCAI), Sankt Augustin, Germany, and thus, though freely distributed, subject to restrictions as defined by SCAI.

The proposed methodology employs an iterative pro- Hydrologic modelling; cedure that combines two public domain computational codes, MODFLOW and HEC-RAS. In MODFLOW; spite of its known versatility, MODFLOW contains several limitations to reproduce eleva- HEC-RAS tion profiles of the free surface along open drain channels. The Drain Module available within MODFLOW simulates groundwater flow to open drain channels as a linear function of the difference between the hydraulic head in the aquifer and the hydraulic head in the drain, where it considers a static representation of water surface profiles along drains. The proposed methodology developed herein uses HEC-RAS, a one-dimensional (1D) com- puter code for open surface water calculations, to iteratively estimate hydraulic profiles along drain channels in order to improve the aquifer/drain interaction process.

  • Streamflow-Routing (SFR2) Package with Unsaturated Flow Beneath Streams (MODFLOW 2005 Version 1.12.00)
    Streamflow-Routing (SFR2) Package with Unsaturated Flow beneath Streams (MODFLOW 2005 Version 1.12.00) MODFLOW Name File The Streamflow-Routing Package is activated automatically by including a record in the MODFLOW-2005 name file using the file type (Ftype) “SFR” to indicate that relevant calculations are to be made in the model and to specify the related input data file. The user can optionally specify that stream gages and monitoring stations are to be represented at one or more locations along a stream channel by including a record in the MODFLOW-2005 name file using the file type (Ftype) “GAGE” that specifies the relevant input data file giving locations of gages. Data input for SFR1 works without modification if unsaturated flow is not simulated. Input Data Instructions The modification of SFR2 to simulate unsaturated flow relies on the specific yield values as specified in the Layer Property Flow (LPF) Package, the Hydrogeologic-Unit Flow (HUF) Package, or the Block-Centered Flow (BCF) Package. If MODFLOW-2005 is run with the option to use vertical hydraulic conductivity in the LPF Package, the layer(s) that contain cells where unsaturated flow will be simulated must be specified as convertible. That is, the variable LAYTYP specified in LPF (or variable LTHUF in HUF) must not be equal to zero, otherwise the model will print an error message and stop execution. Additional variables that must be specified to define hydraulic properties of the unsaturated zone are all included within the SFR2 input file. All values are entered in as free format. Parameters can be used to define streambed hydraulic conductivity only when data input follows the SFR1 input structure (Prudic and others, 2004).

Groundwater numerical modeling can be considered as an effective tool for sustainable management of limited available groundwater. This study aims to model the Birjand aquifer using GMS: MODFLOW groundwater flow modeling software to monitor the groundwater status in the Birjand region. Due to the lack of the reliable required data to run the model, the obtained data from the Regional Water Company of South Khorasan (RWCSK) are controlled using some published reports. To get practical results, the aquifer boundary conditions are improved in the established conceptual method by applying real/field conditions. To calibrate the model parameters, including the hydraulic conductivity, a semi-transient approach is applied by using the observed data of seven years. For model performance evaluation, mean error (ME), mean absolute error (MAE), and root mean square error (RMSE) are calculated. The results of the model are in good agreement with the observed data and therefore, the model can be used for studying the water level changes in the aquifer.

  • Using Multiple Conceptual Models to Understand Transboundary
    Using Multiple Conceptual Models to Understand Transboundary Groundwater Flows in Red Cliff Reservation, WI By Yang Li A Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE (Geological Engineering) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON 2015 Abstract Interactions between surface water and groundwater play a crucial role in water resources management. Understanding recharge dynamics in the vicinity of surface water bodies has important implications for stream ecology. A comprehensive approach is required to quantify recharge, defined as the entry of water into the saturated zone. The objective of this study is to investigate the transboundbary water impacts on groundwater-fed streams in Red Cliff reservation in northern Wisconsin under different recharge scenarios. A modified Thornthwaite-Mather Soil-Water-Balance code (USGS, 2010) which takes spatially variable factors including climate, land cover and topography into consideration to estimate the spatially- variable recharge rate, is used in this study. The main objective of this study is to understand the probable extent of groundwater recharge areas that contribute to the streams of the Red Cliff Reservation. Stream baseflows and the water configuration can be estimated using the groundwater flow model developed using MODFLOW (Harbaugh, 2005; Harbaugh et al., 2000). Three groundwater models, forced by three conceptual models representing different assumptions about estimated recharge and aquifer hydrological properties, are calibrated through PEST (Doherty, 2010a, b) to obtain a plausible model with the best match between simulated observations (heads and stream flows) and corresponding field observations. Capture zones are then delineated by using backward transport of particles through numerical flow modeling with MODPATH (Pollock, 1994).

  • Appendix B Groundwater Flow Model Development
    Appendix B Groundwater Flow Model Development B.1 Introduction B.1.1 Background Hydrogeologic investigations have been conducted at the Dundalk Marine Terminal (DMT) starting with the work performed by EA Engineering Science and Technology, Inc. in 1987 (EA, 1987). The initial investigation included development of a groundwater flow model, which was used to assist in estimating the volumes of groundwater flow in the shallow fill aquifer toward the Patapsco River and the onsite storm drains. In a subsequent feasibility study (EA, 1992), the initial model was somewhat expanded and refined for use in simulating the potential effects of proposed remedial actions. In 2005, CH2M HILL, Inc. started a series of groundwater investigations conducted in three phases that have substantially increased the level of detail in the hydrogeologic understanding of the site. Because of the hydrogeologic complexity of the site, a new groundwater flow model was developed to incorporate the new information obtained in these more recent investigations. This appendix documents the model that has been developed in support of the Chromium Transport Study. B.1.2 Purpose and Objectives Specific objectives of the groundwater flow model are the following: • To provide a computational framework that combines the diverse forms of hydrogeologic information collected at the DMT into a predictive tool governed by the equations of groundwater flow, • To support estimates of the current potential for offsite migration of chromium dissolved in groundwater, both through groundwater discharge to the storm drains or through direct interactions between the aquifers and the Patapsco River, as required in the Chromium Transport Study, • To provide a quantitative mechanism for future predictive simulations of potential remedial actions that could be taken to mitigate dissolved chromium migration.

  • Groundwater Flow Modeling with MODFLOW and Related Programsi
    Technology Fact Sheet Water resources model - Groundwater flow modeling with MODFLOW and related programsi 1) Introduction Computer model that can simulate groundwater flow in the aquifer system continues growing significantly, not only in the two-dimensional but three dimensional scale. The computer model can now be run using a personal computer, so the user model is easier to operate for research. One of the most popular computer models used by researchers is the MODFLOW ground water problems. Groundwater Flow Model module of finite-difference (MODFLOW) was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). MODFLOW is a computer program to simulate the general features of the groundwater system (McDonald and Harbaugh, 1988; Harbaugh and McDonald, 1996). MODFLOW program is built in the early 1980s, the current model continues to evolve which is equipped with a new package and program development related to ground water used in the study. MODFLOW program popularity as a computer program that can be used to simulate ground water is the most widely used program in the world for the simulation of groundwater flow. 2) Technical requirement MODFLOW is designed to simulate aquifer systems in which (1) saturated-flow conditions exist, (2) Darcy's Law applies, (3) the density of ground water is constant, and (4) the principal directions of horizontal hydraulic conductivity or transmissivity do not vary within the system. These conditions are met for many aquifer systems for which there is an interest in analysis of ground-water flow and contaminant movement. For these systems, MODFLOW can simulate a wide variety of hydrologic features and processes.

Alessi 1 1 Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, T6G 2E3, Canada; [email protected] (M.F.); [email protected] (D.S.A.) 2 Alberta Geological Survey, Alberta Energy Regulator, Edmonton, AB, T6B 2X3, Canada; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-403-702-1775 Received: 11 December 2018; Accepted: 3 January 2019; Published: 10 January 2019 Abstract: It has become imperative that surface and groundwater resources be managed as a holistic system. This study applies a coupled groundwater–surface water (GW–SW) model, SWAT–MODFLOW, to study the hydrogeological conditions and the potential impacts of climate change and groundwater withdrawals on GW–SW interactions at a regional scale in western Canada. Model components were calibrated and validated using monthly river flow and hydraulic head data for the 1986–2007 period. Downscaled climate projections from five General Circulation Models (GCMs), under the RCP 8.5, for the 2010–2034 period, were incorporated into the calibrated model. The results demonstrated that GW–SW exchange in the upstream areas had the most pronounced fluctuation between the wet and dry months under historical conditions. While climate change was revealed to have a negligible impact in the GW–SW exchange pattern for the 2010–2034 period, the addition of pumping 21 wells at a rate of 4680 m3/d per well to support hypothetical high-volume water use by the energy sector significantly impacted the exchange pattern.
