Abstract

When modeling the flow of groundwater and streams together, two different approaches are used, using hydraulic and hydrological models as channel flow models. The former is based on mathematical equations of water movement in open channels. In contrast, the latter is based on simplified empirical and semi-empirical relationships between the hydraulic characteristics of watercourses. In both cases, the watercourse is an internal boundary for the groundwater flow - otherwise, it is advisable to model it as a body of water. The groundwater model can be a scale model or an electrical model of the state of the groundwater or an aquifer. Groundwater models are used to represent the natural flow of groundwater in an environment. Some groundwater models include aspects of groundwater quality. Such groundwater models attempt to predict the fate and movement of a chemical in natural, urban, or hypothetical scenarios. Groundwater models can be used to predict the impact of hydrological changes on aquifer behavior and are often referred to as groundwater simulation models. Also, groundwater models are currently being used in various water management plans for urban areas. Because calculations in mathematical groundwater models are based on groundwater flow equations, which are differential equations that can often only be solved by approximate methods using numerical analysis, these models are also referred to as mathematical, numerical, or computational groundwater models.
