Introduction to Applied Groundwater Transport Modelling

Description

The training course Introduction to Applied Groundwater Transport Modeling will take place at the SYMPLE school in Vetralla, Italy, with the option of participating online. The course is divided into three parts: the first is theoretical and entirely conducted online, the second part is a blend of online and on-site attendance, emphasizing practical applications of flow and transport models. A final session, focused on a TCE remediation project, will commence on-site and continue online later on.

The course will cover essential practical criteria necessary for constructing analytical and numerical models. This includes topics like understanding the advection-dispersion equation, defining transport parameters, and selecting the appropriate solver, all illustrated through case studies. Practical applications using MT3DMS, MT3D-USGS and the variable density code SEAWAT will be demonstrated through explanatory lectures and computer exercises facilitated by the proprietary GUI Groundwater Vistas 8.

Each participant will have access to Groundwater Vistas for a duration of 2 months. To ensure accessibility and flexibility, all course sessions, whether conducted online or on-site, will be recorded. These recordings will be uploaded to our e-learning platform, allowing participants to review the material at their convenience.
