This course on groundwater modeling is specifically designed for participants in the fields of hydrology. Only a basic knowledge of groundwater terms is required for participation. Hands-on modeling experience with PCs will serve to introduce the necessary concepts and theory.
After intensive modeling instructions participants will have a basic knowledge of groundwater models, enabling them to begin to evaluate situations by using models, to discuss modeling needs with other professionals, to begin to evaluate modeling efforts of others, and to understand the importance of both the data necessary for the production of a viable assessment and the correct choice of a model for specific situations.
