HGS Research Highlight - An exploration of coupled surface-subsurface solute transport in a fully integrated catchment model

Coupling surface and subsurface water flow is one of the strengths of fully integrated hydrological codes such as HydroGeoSphere (HGS). Following the coupling of surface-subsurface water flow, is coupling of surface-subsurface solute transport, although this subject has received less attention in the literature. ...

HGS Research Highlight - Holding and Allen 2015

Wave overwash events (such as storm surge and tsunamis) have the potential to result in severe consequences to the freshwater resources of small islands as a result of salt contamination of the aquifer. This study used numerical modelling to evaluate the freshwater lens response and recovery to overwash events for various island hydrogeological settings - or island types - that are observed worldwide
