SSP&A is excited to be able to host the following course in Bethesda,
Maryland (USA) this September, 2008:

"Building and Applying Analytical Element Models with Examples and Exercises
using Python"

Analytic element models are often refreshingly easy to understand, and
insightful. The best approach to learn the analytic element method is to
implement it in a simple computer program. This sounds daunting, but using
the Python language, it is possible for any hydrogeologist with a basic
understanding of the building blocks of a computer program. In this new
course, you will build your own analytic element model, and have a great
time doing it.

The course is taught by Dr. Mark Bakker. Mark has taught for 10 years at
American universities and now teaches at the Delft University of Technology
in The Netherlands. In addition, Mark is a consultant for Kiwa WR in Holland
and for WHPA in Bloomington, IN. Mark received his Ph.D. at the University
of Minnesota under the guidance of Prof. Otto Strack, the originator of the
analytic element method. Mark has written a number of analytic element
programs, of which TimML, the free, open-source analytic element model for
steady multi-aquifer flow is the most extensive. Mark has taught workshops
in Python for Hydrologists and used Python in his Computational Methods
class at the University of Georgia, where students were programming in
Python after a basic 2 hour lecture.

Good Day !!!

You are invited to join "Yahoo! Groups - archydro" (ArcGIS -
Geographical Information System). This group aims to provide a forum
for exchange of ideas and experiences regarding application of GIS in
Hydrology and Water Resources; and use of ArcGIS software (in
general) and Arc Hydro (in particular).

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are used to display,
manipulate and analyse spatial (map) data. ArcGIS (produced by ESRI)
is an integrated collection of software products for building a
complete geographic information system (GIS). There are three ArcGIS
desktop applications - ArcCatalog, ArcMap, and ArcToolbox. ArcCatalog
is the application for managing your spatial data holdings, for
managing your database designs, and for recording and viewing
metadata. ArcMap is used for all mapping and editing tasks, as well
as for map-based analysis. ArcToolbox is used for data conversion and
geoprocessing. Using these three applications together, you can
perform any GIS task, simple to advanced, including mapping, data
management, geographic analysis, data editing, and geoprocessing.
There are also server-based ArcGIS products, as well as ArcGIS
products for PDAs. Extensions can be purchased separately to increase
the functionality of ArcGIS.

GIS is a powerful tool for developing solutions for water resources
such as assessing water quality and managing water resources on a
local or regional scale. Hydrologists use GIS technology to integrate
various data and applications into one, manageable system. ArcGIS
with Arc Hydro gives you the flexibility to combine watershed
datasets from one map source with stream and river networks. The
suite of tools contained in Arc Hydro facilitate the creation,
manipulation, and display of hydro features and objects within the
ArcGIS environment. Use ArcGIS Spatial Analyst for hydrologic
analysis such as calculating flow across an elevation surface, which
provides the basis for creating stream networks and watersheds;
calculating flow path length; and assigning stream orders.

To subscribe this group, please send a blank email to
archydro-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

Apologies for cross-postings.

Check out Caine and Forster 1999, caine et al 1996, smith et al 1990.
Barrier versus conduit determination are dependant on the rock type,
fault orientation, structural regiem, and infilling.

I use FEMWATER to buld gw models with faults having irregular
geometries.  Packer test data from boreholes drilled into faults are
used to bound the fault K values and sens analysis.

There's a seminal paper on fault flow in the Bighorn Basin (USA) by Bredehoeft
from the 1980's.

He used MODFLOW if I recall.

The real decision you need to make here is whether they are acting as barriers
against or conduits for flow.

I suggest a sensitivity analyses as well.

Dear all,

I am modeling a karst area; I have some faults in this area. I have some
monitoring wells around the faults. These monitoring wells supplied us with the
water level changes in the wet season and dry season for two years. Also we
considered it as observation wells in a pump test. I want to take the faults as
the boundary for the study area, so kindly I need answer for the following:

Is it possible to know the hydrologic condition for the fault, and calculate the
flux across it from these monitoring wells?

Can you supply me with names or website for any papers or reports, solving this
problem?

Thanks to all members

I agree with u Vevien, MODFLOW Manual is the most badly written manual where u
should not expect nething except function of each tab...

I think this is the problem that I too had a while back - I think it is because
your layer boundaries are not horizontal (no problem with that) and the river in
some places is in contact with one layer and other places it is in contact with
the next layer.

I think if you double click on the river arc and instead of <use layer range>
choose <auto assign layers using lower cells> this will assign the river arc to
the appropriate cells in the topmost layer that it crosses at all the points
along the arc.

Dear People
I'm really confused. I really need your help. Constantly getting this
error message when I do the modflow simulation check using GMS 6.0
"The Changing Head Boundary Condition is below the bottom elevation of
cell"

Now what I'm trying to do:

After that when I check simulation: it gives me above error. not sure
what is happening.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Zahid

Subject: [gms-users] Problem with Pilot Points

Hi,

I'm working with a one layer local model, converted from a precedent
Regional model. I dispose of a 2D scatter set of 28 measures of logK
from pumping tests, which I toggle on the option of "fixed pilot
point". Next, I generate a new 2D scatter point with about 70 pilot
points. The problem comes when starting to run Modflow, because he
stops at the beginning and says "Error condition prevents continued
MF2PEST execution. Line 4 of file XXX.snn: parameter less than lower
bound".
This comes from the generation of the 2D scatter set of pilot points,
when at the beginning one must to indicate a number in the Default
data set (Scatter point settings). I've tried some different values,
but no way, always the same problem.
Could somebody explain me why it arrives and how should I do to
overcome this step?
Thanks!
Jordi.

Hi Bruce ... thanks so much for your response - still no success yet.

You have said to ensure that 'the variables you want to use as pilot points are
set to pilot points and pointed to the observation coverage that you want'.

I have set up 2 HK layers, 2 key values (-30, -60), 2 observation layers with
bore levels (wells), and 2 scatter sets for pilot points.

I have set each HK layer to pilot points (HK_30 and HK_60)and directed them to
the appropriate scatter sets but am not sure how to 'point them to the
observation coverage' - can you advise how to do this??

Thanks for your time Bruce ... Vivien

Without seeing your files and how you've set up your model, what

you are trying to do can be accomplished by:

-        creating 2 separate pilot point sets

-        make sure that the key values for layer 1 and layer 2 are

different and properly defined in the Parameters dialog.

-        you shouldn't need to have 2 different observation coverages.  You

can but it isn't necessary.

Warm regards

Jeff

Hi ... I am a student in Australia using GMS and I have a problem that I
hope someone can help me with.

I have a 2-layer model (bottom is confined and top is convertible) that is
bounded by a river defined as a specified head drop (as there is no
information on the flow rate or conductance etc.) on 2 sides and no-flow
bedrock boundaries on the other sides. I have created a solid model of the
geology and mapped this to a grid and have successfully created a flow model
for the site.

However I am now trying to calibrate the model and determine the HK
distribution in each layer but am having no success. I have been using the
GMS tutorials as my guide and going to HELP as well. My problem at the
moment is related to the fact that I have water levels in both of my layers
but I am finding that I can't get the software to recognise that.

This is what I have done:
I have set up a group of 2D scatter points (the pilot points) across the
domain as described in the tutorial (which has only 1 layer unfortunately).
I have a single Observations coverage that includes the water levels in
layers 1 and 2 but when I run it all points are being treated as though in
layer 2 even though some are defined as being in layer 1. I have also tried
using 2 Observations coverages separating the water levels into separate
layers but still no success.

I have been trying different things over the last few days and I think the
essence of my problem is simply (and more generally) how to deal with pilot
points in 2 layers.

My only resource is the tutorials and they have only one HK layer, one
observation coverage and one set of pilot points.

(a) 2 separate observation coverages that separate the observation bores
into layer 1 and layer 2?
(b) 2 separate sets of pilot points?

Hello everybody


I am using at the moment modflow with the transport calculator mt3d to
try to simulate the behaviour of a simple injection in a well, on an
area with almost flat water table. I AM GETTING REALLY COMPLICATED to
make a model run have you ever came across such situation,  do you
think would be useful to use other packages more appropriated, or do
you consider that with modflow  it is possible to simulate also the
density dependent flow for that mentioned injection well?

thanks a lot for your reply and help.

sincerely

fredy

Hi Vivien -- The short answer is, yes, you'll need separate coverages for
each layer for pretty much everything you do with GMS. Make sure your
coverages are set for the different layers in the Coverage Setup dialogue
like the default layer range and the type of observations. Check these
under the MODFLOW -> Observations menu to make sure the observation
coverages are active. Check the MODFLOW -> Parameters dialogue that the
variables you want to use as pilot points are set to pilot points and
pointed to the observation coverage that you want. If you're using the 6.5
beta make sure your variable number (-100, for instance) isn't being used
anywhere else in the model like a cell bottom altitude. This doesn't
matter in the 6.0 version.

Hope some of this helps. I recently calibrated a 16 layer model with pilot
points in most of them, so it can be done!

Good luck. Bruce

[gms-users] Pilot Points in 2 Layers






Hi ... I am a student in Australia using GMS and I have a problem that I
hope someone can help me with.

I have a 2-layer model (bottom is confined and top is convertible) that is
bounded by a river defined as a specified head drop (as there is no
information on the flow rate or conductance etc.) on 2 sides and no-flow
bedrock boundaries on the other sides. I have created a solid model of the
geology and mapped this to a grid and have successfully created a flow
model for the site.

However I am now trying to calibrate the model and determine the HK
distribution in each layer but am having no success. I have been using the
GMS tutorials as my guide and going to HELP as well. My problem at the
moment is related to the fact that I have water levels in both of my
layers but I am finding that I can't get the software to recognise that.

This is what I have done:
I have set up a group of 2D scatter points (the pilot points) across the
domain as described in the tutorial (which has only 1 layer
unfortunately). I have a single Observations coverage that includes the
water levels in layers 1 and 2 but when I run it all points are being
treated as though in layer 2 even though some are defined as being in
layer 1. I have also tried using 2 Observations coverages separating the
water levels into separate layers but still no success.

I have been trying different things over the last few days and I think the
essence of my problem is simply (and more generally) how to deal with
pilot points in 2 layers.

My only resource is the tutorials and they have only one HK layer, one
observation coverage and one set of pilot points.

Since I have 2 HK layers do I need to create:
(a) 2 separate observation coverages that separate the observation bores
into layer 1 and layer 2?
(b) 2 separate sets of pilot points?

Hello group

presently i have started my Ph.D study in water resources engineering in the
stream of groundwater recharging and its impact on groundwater quality. in that
reference i have been informed to use GMS
so some thing i want to know that how i can get the software not licenced
because i m not in that position to purchase software and second how the manual
to use such software can be obtained.

You are kindly requested to add me a member of such group

Dear member

i use femwater coupled with GMS.

i want to modelize an excavation. i put the head in the bottom of the
excavation as constant head(equal to the elevation) but the level of
aquifer near the excavtion is constant.


do you now how to modelize the excavation with GMS.

Subject: Exporting Flow files

Namaste Mr. Kumar,

This is Mahesh Pun, a graduate student of Environmental Engineering.
Currently i am using GMS software. Currently i am trying to model a
watershed basin of mid-west america. I am using WASH123D (1D
river/stream, 2D overland, and 3D subsurface flow), modeling of water
flow in an integrated presperctive. Currently it runs on super-
computer, unix environment. I am using (a new user)GMS to generate
geometric and flow files of rivers, overland, and sub-surface. I am
able to create geometric files of these in GMS, extract it from
GMS ,and send it to super-computer and is ready for simulation. But i
can't flow files and extract it from GMS.

Sir if you have any ideas regarding this matter or any advice and
suggestions i could use to solve this problem, please kindly let me
know. I am using all my ideas currently but nothing seems to work.

It was nice to know you through website, an experienced and helpful
person in this field of environment Modeling. I would be waiting for
your reply. Thank you sir.

Sincerely,

Dear Member,

I intend to prepare a directory of groundwater hydrologists. After
compilation, I can upload the directory in the Files section of
gwmodel group (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/gwmodel/files/), so
that anyone can refer to it whenever needed. I therefore request all
the groundwater hydrologists in this group to please forward the
following details to my e-mail address cpkumar@... at your
earliest convenience.

Hello

   After doing simulation with femwater; I can’t see the surface of the water
table
   And I don’t now if I can cut some cross section

   ghassen
   thank you

Hello! I'm learning GMS and i have some questions.

   1.- How is define the aquifer? I define aquifer like tutorial, but when
convert map --> modflow the simbology of aquifer are the same that wells. Is
ok???

   2.- Then run Modflow, I don't undersand the grahic.

   Is there somewhere explain de results then run Modflow?


   Thanks.

PLEASE SOME COULD HELP HOW TO DEMNSTRATE THE GOVERNING
