Calculate fluid volumes for selected elements
This post introduces three new commands added in Revision 2321 (November 2021) for tracking fluid volumes in selected elements within a model. These commands allow users to calculate the total fluid volume for both the porous media and surface flow domains:
"Athabasca River Basin High-Res Modelling of the Impact of Climate Change" - Webinar hosted by COSIA
On September 16th, 2021 Aquanty's senior scientist Hyoun-Tae Hwang delivered a webinar discussing our recent work in modelling the impacts of climate change in the Athabasca River Basin using HydroGeoSphere. We would like to thank Canada's Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA) for the opportunity to present this most recent research, which follows on several years of partnerships to model the ARB in high-resolution using HydroGeoSphere, Aquanty’s cutting edge integrated hydrologic modeling platform.
HGS RESEARCH HIGHLIGHT – Integrated modelling to assess climate change impacts on groundwater and surface water in the Great Lakes Basin using diverse climate forcing
HydroGeoSphere is an excellent tool for evaluating climate change impacts to integrated hydrologic systems, since HGS can be effectively coupled with climate forecasting simulators like the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, the Community Climate System Model (CCSM) and the Canadian Regional Climate Model (CRCM). HydroGeoSphere accounts for water dynamics in the atmosphere, ground surface and subsurface in a seamless manner and thus is the best modeling tool for evaluating the impact and risk associated with climate change on water resources.
Nodal flux reduction by pressure head boundary condition modifier
This post describes how to use the flux nodal boundary condition modifier: nodal flux reduction by pressure head. This modifier is used when the flux rate is set higher than the available water, which can cause numerical instability and model crashes.
