About MODFLOW 6
MODFLOW 6 is a modeling framework from the U.S. Geological Survey for simulations involving groundwater flow and related processes. Its model types cover groundwater flow, solute transport, thermal energy transport and particle tracking.
Multiple models can be combined in one simulation and exchange information. It suits hydrologists and researchers working with groundwater systems and related water movement.
Strengths
- Models groundwater flow, solute transport and thermal energy
- Supports coupled and multiple-model simulations
- Includes particle tracking
Limitations
- Requires hydrologic modeling expertise to configure and interpret
