POTENTIAL Use of Digital Computer Ground Water Models.

Abstract

The discussion on the potential use of digital computer groundwater models was prepared for the Albuquerque District, Corps of Engineers, Albuquerque, New Mexico, as part of a water supply study of the Albuquerque Greater Urban Area (AGUA). Although the material presented was developed for the Albuquerque area, the concepts are applicable to the understanding of ground water modeling generally. The discussion included both quantity and quality models and reasons why an agency may wish to undertake a modeling effort. Available computer programs were cited and the probable advantages and disadvantages of specific programs were given. Costs for prior modeling efforts of groundwater systems in other localities were also included as a guide to probable cost when considering the use of a digital computer groundwater model. (Author)
