Monographs
Occasionally, GMDSI publishes a monograph, either as a document or perhaps a video, on a subject of modelling importance. Though technical in nature, GMDSI monographs are targeted at a broad audience. Their purpose is to cogently challenge ways in which decision-support groundwater modelling is traditionally undertaken using arguments that are based on logic and experience. These arguments are presented in ways that make them easy to read or listen to, whether you are a modeller, or a stakeholder in model-based groundwater management.
The Regulatory Framework: Consultations and Discussions
The last in a series of meetings that GMDSI hosted on the groundwater regulatory framework was held on August 18th, 2022. This meeting (attended by
Scientifically-Based, Decision-Support Groundwater Modelling
GMDSI is preparing a two-part book. A draft of the first part of this book is now available. Authored by John Doherty, it provides a
Decision-Support Groundwater Modelling: A Game
This game illustrates ideas presented in an accompanying interactive video. Like the video, it was developed by Ty Ferré of University of Arizona. The game
Interactive Video: A Conceptual Representation of the Phases of Groundwater Model Development and Application for Users at all Levels
Groundwater modelling needs a context to make sense. This context is set by a decision that must be made, by those who must make that
Monograph: Decision-Support Modelling Viewed through the Lens of Model Complexity
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
