Abstract:
Groundwater is of fundamental importance in water
resources planning, development and management.
Groundwater flow has many applications, among which
are agricultural developments, domestic use such as
supply of drinking water, irrigation, and a variety of water
quality applications. As the usage of groundwater
expands, our knowledge of groundwater systems must
also expand. Numerical groundwater modelling is a tool
that can aid in studying groundwater problems and can
help increase our understanding of groundwater systems.
The purpose of this article is to highlight major
groundwater issues, concepts of groundwater modelling,
and commonly used groundwater modelling software.
