MODFLOW 6 & FloPy

Solute transport and variable-density flow modelling with MODFLOW 6 and FloPy. (LC-25-3-138)


Description
FloPy is an essential Python library for groundwater modelling, enabling users to create and analyse MODFLOW models with efficiency and flexibility. With MODFLOW 6 as the latest member of the family of codes and script-based modelling using FloPy has become the industry standard for groundwater flow simulations. This course builds on fundamental knowledge of MODFLOW 6 and FloPy, advancing into more complex groundwater processes.

Designed for experienced users, this advanced course delves into solute transport and variable density flow modelling. Key applications include simulating seawater intrusion in coastal aquifers and managing aquifer storage and recovery projects. Through hands-on learning, participants will explore advanced FloPy functionalities to enhance their modelling skills and tackle real-world groundwater challenges.

Participants will gain access to a collection of ready-to-use Python notebooks featuring FloPy code for common solute transport and density-driven flow problems. These adaptable scripts serve as a foundation for customising models to suit specific groundwater scenarios. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped with the expertise to apply FloPy and MODFLOW 6 effectively in complex hydrological studies.
