The interaction between rivers and aquifers can be understood with the use of numerical tools such as Modflow. Construction of groundwater models with river interaction requires the use of several boundary conditions, hydraulic parameters, observed data and temporal and spatial discretization techniques. We have developed an applied case of river aquifer interaction modeling with Modflow 6 and Model Muse using a quadtree mesh considering regional flow and well pumping.
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.
