Dear HYDRUS users,
You may be interested in a new review of HYDRUS, written by John McCray from The Colorado School of Mines, Golden, Colorado, and recently published in the Southwest Hydrology.
We appreciate John‘s kind words regarding our software. We are aware that the HYDRUS documentation (despite already including 240 pages in the Technical Manual, 194 pages in the User Manual, 72 pages in the Wetland module manual, and over 1000 pages of Online Help) still needs a lot of improvements, and we are actively working on them. These new modifications are included in each new update (John reviewed one of the earlier Beta versions). We sincerely welcome comments on all aspects of the software and any suggestions for its improvement.

Quotations from the review:
- ... All of the reviewers were favorably impressed by HYDRUS 2D. The capabilities of this sophisticated code are impressive and the interface is well thought out...
- ... Meshgen-2D made irregular mesh generation painless. I get the most out of this package, we strongly recommend that Meshgen-2D should also be purchased...
