Did you ever get this sorted out? I had this problem with one of my models and ended up increasing the thickness of the top layer so that the heads (at their...
Hi everyone. I am working on a model attempting to simulate lakes in karst terrain. There are a series of lakes perched on a sandy ridge. Originally the lakes...
I don't know if MODFLOW actually has a way of designating a lake - in say the same way as a river - but it could do, and its availability would depend on...
Dear Colleague, As you know for areas where bounaries play an important role in recharging or discharging the model domain, defining the appropriate...
Hi Ashley, It seems, in terms of mass balance, that the constant heads that were representing your lake were providing a significant inflow to the model. When ...
Hello Ashley, You've had couple good replies to your question. Here's more to think about. Are the lakes really perched? That implies a poor connection to a...
If the lake stage is controlled by factors other than ground-water flow into or out of the lake, then simulating it with a constant head boundary is...

In a quasi-3D model, the confining units are not represented by model layers. Instead, the vertical conductance between the aquifers is set to a low value to...

Ashley: Quasi-3D usually means that the model represents leaky, confining layers with purely vertical (1D) flow connections between the aquifer layers ...

If your purpose is to study saltwater intrusion, as a first assumption I wouldn’t consider using a 2D horizontal model: the presence of a saltwater wedge...

Hello everyone, I m quite new to modflow,using GMS. My question is about river observations; I have river in my model which is passing from east to west....
As far as I understand, you don't actually model river flow using MODFLOW, you have to model river stage. If you know the channel dimensions you'll be able to...
That’s right: MODFLOW ignores the river flow. To simulate a river you have to measure (or derive from maps), among other data, its stage at different ...
Thanks for the informations, But the observed flow should be 20 l/s,not 120 or 100. Best Regards ... From: Giovanni Formentin <piercoop@...> Subject: R:...
Yes: 20 l/s should be the flow supplied by the aquifer to the river (if the river flows east to west) as calculated by the model through the whole river...
Actually there are alternatives. Here's one: If you use the RIV package, probably the single 20 l/s is appropriate. If you use the STR package, you might use...
