Thank you very much Olayinka,
I guess I should use 2 separate simulations... I would like to set up
the second simulation so that the end results of simulation 1 are
initial conditions for simulation 2...Have you tried that before?
Thanks and have a great day.
Paulo

MODFLOW 2000 only allow one K matrix values per layer per simulation
and this is incorporated within the flow package.

account for the permeable barrier distribution. This is not suppose to
be of much problem especially if you incorporate your modflow with GIS
package like GRASS GIS.
