    Groundwater Research and Management

    In many regions of the world, the groundwater resource base and the social, economicand environmental systems dependent on it, are under threat from over-abstraction and

    pollution. Groundwater management, beyond pure development of the resource, is in its

    incipient phase in many countries and traditionally, management is only weakly hinged

    on research. When it comes to solving the problems, and putting into place managementschemes, the impediments are numerous. Besides the lack of basic knowledge and

    information of the groundwater resource, knowledge of possible management options is

    also inadequate.

    This group aims to provide an interaction between groundwater researchers and managers

    to synthesize their knowledge, perceptions and ideas for improved groundwatermanagement and research.

    FEFLOW Users Group

    FEFLOW (Finite Element subsurface FLOW system) is a sophisticated software package

    for the modeling of flow and transport processes in porous media under saturated and

    unsaturated conditions. Integral components are interactive graphics, a GIS interface,data regionalization and visualisation tools and powerful numeric techniques. These

    components ensure an efficient working process building the finite element mesh,

    assigning model properties and boundary conditions, running the simulation, andvisualizing the results.

    element groundwater models. Tools are provided for site characterization, model

    conceptualization, mesh and grid generation, geostatistics, telescopic model refinement,automated model calibration, and output post-processing. The program allows common

    information to be shared among different data types and groundwater models. GMS iscompletely graphical, and can display a defined groundwater model in either plan view or3D oblique view, and can be rotated interactively. Tools are provided for site

    characterization, model conceptualization, mesh and grid generation, geostatistics, and

    output post-processing.

    SEAWAT Users Group

    The SEAWAT program was developed to simulate three-dimensional, variable- density,

    transient ground-water flow in porous media. The source code for SEAWAT was

    developed by combining MODFLOW and MT3DMS into a single program that solvesthe coupled flow and solute-transport equations. The SEAWAT code follows a modular

    structure, and thus, new capabilities can be added with only minor modifications to the

    main program. SEAWAT reads and writes standard MODFLOW and MT3DMS data

    sets, although some extra input may be required for some SEAWAT simulations. This

    means that many of the existing pre- and post-processors can be used to create input datasets and analyze simulation results. Users familiar with MODFLOW and MT3DMS

    should have little difficulty applying SEAWAT to problems of variable-density ground-water flow. SEAWAT-2000 is the latest release of the SEAWAT computer program for

    simulation of three-dimensional, variable-density, transient ground-water flow in porous

    media. SEAWAT-2000 was designed by combining a modified version of MODFLOW-2000 and MT3DMS into a single computer program.

    This group aims to provide a forum for exchange of ideas and experiences regarding useand application of SEAWAT software.

    ArcGIS - Geographical Information System

    Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are used to display, manipulate and analyse

    spatial (map) data. ArcGIS (produced by ESRI) is an integrated collection of software

    products for building a complete geographic information system (GIS). There are threeArcGIS desktop applications - ArcCatalog, ArcMap, and ArcToolbox. ArcCatalog is the

    application for managing your spatial data holdings, for managing your database designs,

    and for recording and viewing metadata. ArcMap is used for all mapping and editingtasks, as well as for map-based analysis. ArcToolbox is used for data conversion and

    geoprocessing. Using these three applications together, you can perform any GIS task,simple to advanced, including mapping, data management, geographic analysis, dataediting, and geoprocessing. There are also server-based ArcGIS products, as well as

    ArcGIS products for PDAs. Extensions can be purchased separately to increase the

    functionality of ArcGIS.

    GIS is a powerful tool for developing solutions for water resources such as assessing

    water quality and managing water resources on a local or regional scale. Hydrologists use

    GIS technology to integrate various data and applications into one, manageable system.ArcGIS with Arc Hydro gives you the flexibility to combine watershed datasets from one

    map source with stream and river networks. The suite of tools contained in Arc Hydro

    facilitate the creation, manipulation, and display of hydro features and objects within theArcGIS environment. Use ArcGIS Spatial Analyst for hydrologic analysis such as

    calculating flow across an elevation surface, which provides the basis for creating stream

    networks and watersheds; calculating flow path length; and assigning stream orders.

    This group aims to provide a forum for exchange of ideas and experiences regarding

    application of GIS in Hydrology and Water Resources; and use of ArcGIS software (in

    general) and Arc Hydro (in particular).
