This example develops a groundwater model in MODFLOW6 DISV that implements a Voronoi mesh generated from the basin boundary and river network with the mf6Voronoi packages that allow high performance meshing fully coupled with geospatial data. On the Voronoi mesh, the refinement levels are defined by a minimum cell size, maximum cell size and a multiplier. The applied case covers all steps on model discretization, construction, simulation and 2D visualization.
Instructor
Saul Montoya M.Sc
Hydrogeologist - Numerical Modeler
Mr. Montoya is a Civil Engineer graduated from the Catholic University in Lima with postgraduate studies in Management and Engineering of Water Resources (WAREM Program) from Stuttgart University – Germany with mention in Groundwater Engineering and Hydroinformatics. Mr Montoya has a strong analytical capacity for the interpretation, conceptualization and modeling of the surface and underground water cycle and their interaction. He is in charge of numerical modeling for contaminant transport and remediation systems of contaminated sites. Inside his hydrological and hydrogeological investigations Mr. Montoya has developed an holistic comprehension of the water cycle, understanding and quantifying the main hydrological dynamic process of precipitation, runoff, evaporation and recharge to the groundwater system.

FloPy is the Python library that builds and executes MODFLOW models; this library has been enhanced to provide full support of MODFLOW 6 with most of its recent development is related to functionality for MODFLOW 6, tools to use vector and raster spatial data and common plotting and export functionality.
