A descriptive representation of a groundwater system that incorporates an interpretation of the geological & hydrological conditions. Generally includes information about the water budget.
Conceptual Model
a set of equations that describesthe physical and/or chemical processesoccurring in a system.
Mathematical Model
• Governing Equation
• Boundary Conditions• Specified head (1st type or Neumann) constant head
• Specified flux (2nd type or Dirichlet) no flux
Components of a Mathematical Model
• Initial Conditions (for transient conditions)
