MODFLOW‐NWT: Robust Handling of Dry Cells Using a Newton Formulation of MODFLOW‐2005
Groundwater, 2012Introduction The first versions of the widely used groundwater flow model MODFLOW (McDonald and Harbaugh 1988) had a sure but inflexible way of handling unconfined finite-difference aquifer cells where the water table dropped below the bottom of the cell—these “dry cells” were turned inactive for the remainder of the simulation.

Efficient Storage of Large
AbstractWe present a methodology for storing the bulkier portions of a set of MODFLOW input and output files in a compressed binary format using the HDF5 library. This approach results in compression ratios of up to 99% with no significant time penalty.

Development and Application of the Integrated GIS-MODFLOW Model [PDF]
Water scarcity is the major problem faced by today’s world. Groundwater is the most valuable resource of drinking water due to the scarcity of good quality surface water. Groundwater occurs in hard rock layers whose thickness may vary from few meters to 100 m. Aquifer stores the groundwater and yielded the water at the time of pumping.

MODFLOW‐Style Parameters in Underdetermined Parameter Estimation
Groundwater, 2011In this article, we discuss the use of MODFLOW‐Style parameters in the numerical codes MODFLOW_2005 and MODFLOW_2005‐Adjoint for the definition of variables in the Layer Property Flow package. Parameters are a useful tool to represent aquifer properties in both codes and are the only option available in the adjoint version. Moreover, for overdetermined

Coupled Simulation of Xinanjiang Model with MODFLOW
Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2013AbstractThis paper investigates the probability of integrating the Xinanjiang model, the most widely used watershed hydrological model in China, with the fully distributed groundwater model MODFLOW for processing a coupled flow simulation. Based on the flow simulation of the Xinanjiang and the SWAT model in the case study area, the correlation between ...

Regulation of shallow groundwater based on MODFLOW
Applied Geography, 2019Abstract The relationship between shallow groundwater and vegetation growth is very close. Shallow groundwater can supply water for surface natural environments. The water table may offer an opportunity for or threat to land vegetation. Thus, fluctuation of the shallow groundwater should be managed to a reasonable range.

Comparison of Local Grid Refinement Methods for MODFLOW
Groundwater, 2006AbstractMany ground water modeling efforts use a finite‐difference method to solve the ground water flow equation, and many of these models require a relatively fine‐grid discretization to accurately represent the selected process in limited areas of interest.

Spatial Periodic Boundary Condition for
AbstractSmall‐scale hyporheic zone (HZ) models often use a spatial periodic boundary (SPB) pair to simulate an infinite repetition of bedforms. SPB's are common features of commercially available multiphysics modeling packages. MODFLOW's lack of this boundary type has precluded it from being effectively utilized in this area of HZ research.

Evaluation of the MODFLOW‐2005 Conduit Flow Process
Groundwater, 2010The recent development of the Conduit Flow Process (CFP) by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) provides hydrogeologic modelers with a new tool that incorporates the non‐Darcian, multiporosity components of flow characteristic of karst aquifers. CFP introduces new parameters extending beyond those of traditional Darcian groundwater flow codes.
