GEOL.5250 Groundwater Modeling

Id: 041261 Credits Min: 3 Credits Max: 3

Description

This course covers the concepts and practice of mathematical and numerical modeling of saturated groundwater flow and solute transport. Students will use industry-standard groundwater modeling software, including MODFLOW, MODPATH, MT3DMS, SEAWAT, and PHT3D for single- and variable-density flow, particle tracking, and solute and reactive transport. Emphasis will be on formulating mathematical representations of flow, use of groundwater models with graphical user interfaces, and post-processing and analysis of model results.

Prerequisites

GEOL.3140 Hydrogeology, and MATH.1310 Calculus I.
