This tutorial explores the use of “conceptual points” as a precursor to model parameterisation. Expected hydraulic properties are provided at these conceptual points. Just as
This tutorial explores construction of the interface between PEST/PEST++and a simple MODFLOW/MODPATH model, and how to then subject that model to history-matching and uncertainty analysis–including

What should decision-support groundwater modelling seek to accomplish? Should it try to build a digital replica of what happens underground? Obviously not, because this is
GMDSI and the USGS have co-funded the development of a series of jupyter notebooks that use python scripting to demonstrate many aspects of applied decision-support
Decision-support groundwater modelling is as much an art as it is a science. Much of the “art” is in decomposing the management problem that modelling
Using the PLPROC parameter preprocessor supplied with the PEST suite, moveable polylinear and polygonal structural features such as faults and aquitard windows can be inserted
Construction of a decision support groundwater model requires that parameters be adjustable, stochastic and representative of geological conditions. This can be difficult to achieve in
This tutorial introduces data space inversion (DSI). DSI can be used to explore the uncertainties of predictions made by complex models with complicated hydraulic property
GMDSI is managed by the National Centre for Groundwater Research and Training (NCGRT) and administered by Flinders University.
