  • This tutorial provides instructions on how to how a groundwater component to you Watershed Simulation Model.

Prerequisits

  • Watershed analysis saved with all data
  • Working Watershed simulation model

Adding aquifer Information to your Network Data

  • Open Aquifer Tab in Watershed Analysis tool
  • Click Calc Floodplain
    • Warning: Must have your Net Ptr, HydroDEM, and Stream Raster open in their usee controls.
    • This tool creates a raster covering your floodplain according to your set max flood height
    • Default max flood height it 1 meter. This should be estimated and changed to suit your watershed.
  • Click Calc Floodplain Area
    • Warning: Must have your Net Ptr, HydroDEM, and Stream Raster And your floodplain raster open in their usee controls.
    • This too breaks up your floodplain and connects a floodplain area with a corresponding node.
  • Click Calc Aquifer From Floodplain
    • Warning, must have your floodplain raster open, and have calculated floodplain area
    • This tool uses a hillslope parameter to estimate triangular aquifer geometry
    • The default hillslope is 15 degrees from horizontal, make a good estimation for your watershed.
    • Warning, a hillslope less then or equal to zero, or greater or equal to ninety will not work properly.

Including GroundWater processes in you Watershed Model
