Statement

Model has been constructed using the MODFLOW-2005 Package and graphical interface ModelMuse (Winston, 2009). MODFLOW is a 3D code that solves the finite-difference method and includes modules to simulate steady-state or transient groundwater flow in confined/unconfined aquifers (Harbaugh, 2005). A steady-state simulation has been conducted to set up initial conditions, as compared with field data. The transient simulation covers an eight year period from 2010 to November 2017. Monthly stress periods with 3 time steps in each have been adopted in the model simulation. Further details in paper: 1-Ferrer, N., Folch, A., Lane, M. et al. (2019).
